The primary purpose of the Squamish Community Foundation is to pool donations in a perpetual endowment fund that earns income. The capital of such funds is managed and monitored by the board of directors. Grants are made from the income earned on the endowment. This mechanism creates a permanent source of funding.
Squamish Community Foundation provides a vehicle for attracting, managing and distributing donations within our community. This increases the amount of money available to charitable organizations and other eligible donees.
