SCAN OF MANITOBA’S RURAL AND NORTHERN COMMUNITY FOUNDATIONS

The Scan of Community Foundations project strived to increase the understanding of the diversity existing among Manitoba’s rural and northern community foundations. Through the project activities an increased understanding of community foundations, their organizations, their structures, their endowments, their community grants, and local benefits were achieved. The opportunities and challenges encountered by community foundations were captured to assist the community foundation movement, government policy and programming, and academic institutions concerned with community development.
