24Hr Giving a Success

November 16, 2015

Over $18,000 was gifted to the Winkler Community Foundation during 24 Hour Giving Challenge on Saturday, November 14. The Winkler Community Foundation would like to thank the community for their generous support. We would also like to say a huge Thank-you to The Winnipeg Foundation for the 24 Hour Giving Challenge opportunity. All funds collected on November 14, 2015 are matched by the Winnipeg Foundation $1 for $5 (to a maximum of $10,000).

In addition to the 24 Hour Giving Challenge match, the Thomas Sill Foundation will match all funds at a ratio of 1:2 to a maximum of $50,000. The drive for $50,000 will continue until September 2016.

As of November 16, the Winkler Community Foundation has collected  $33,621 towards our drive for $50,000 to grow the Community Endowment Fund.

Pay It Forward May

  Pay it Forward is something we can and should be doing all year round. The Winkler Community Foundation and Morden Area Foundation has chosen one month to be more active in our efforts – not because we have to, but because we want to. Not because we’ve experienced kindness from others, but because we want to work together to make our community strong and vibrant. Pay it Forward. Inspire others. Impact our Community.
