Pledge to make a difference, together.
The Community Foundation of Nova Scotia is a public charitable foundation created by and for the people of Nova Scotia.
We engage in three core activities:
* we establish and maintain endowment funds on behalf of private donors, businesses, charities, and communities which, in turn, support registered charities and other eligible recipients within the province of NS;
* we engage in strategic grant-making; and
* we provide leadership with respect to a broad range of community issues, connecting people who care with causes that matter.
We are a member of Community Foundations of Canada, which represents a network of 168 community foundations nationally, and who together hold close to $2.5 Billion in assets. In 2008, Canada's community foundations granted nearly $170 Million to organizations doing good work in our communities each and every day.
