The Endow Manitoba Giving Challenge is the drive to grow the local Community Fund. This is the Winkler Community Foundation’s largest fundraising drive of the year. During the week of November 15 – 21, 2021 over $114,800 was received in gifts for the community fund with additional gifts made to other funds held at the Winkler Community Foundation.
Growing the Winkler Community Foundation (WCF) COMMUNITY ENDOWMENT FUND allows WCF to support charities that address areas of community need. Over the next 3 years, it is the Foundation’s goal to grow the Community fund to $1 million. A fund of $1million in assets allows the foundation to grant $40,000 annually; to provide support and have a greater impact on our community through local charities and projects. By supporting the Community fund you are giving back year after year FOREVER.
