Building a Brighter Future for Our Communities
The Creston Valley Community Foundation, established in 2005, empowers local non-profits across a diverse region stretching 130 km from Yahk to Riondel, including the Yaqan Nu?kiy near the US border.
We invest in the long-term well-being of our communities by providing grants to qualified organizations. These grants support initiatives that promote health, wellness, and prosperity for future generations.
Turning Dreams into Reality
Our annual grants are funded through permanent endowment funds. We believe in connecting generous individuals "People Who Care" with causes they support "Dreams That Matter".
Make a Lasting Impact
The Creston Valley Community Foundation welcomes donations of various forms, including cash, stocks, real estate, and artwork. These contributions are invested in perpetuity, and the generated income is distributed back to our communities through a grant application process (applications open January 1st - March 31st on our website: www.ckfoundation.com).
Donating Makes a Difference (and Saves You Money!)
As a registered charity, donations of $20 or more qualify for tax receipts. Remember, charitable giving offers tax credits, not deductions, benefiting everyone regardless of their tax bracket.
We accept various donation types, each with potential tax benefits. We can collaborate with you and your advisors to minimize your tax burden during your lifetime and for your estate.
