Foundation approved as 1% for Planet Non-Profit Partner |
Nov 30th, 2009
|
The Mission 1% for the Planet exists to build and support an alliance of businesses financially committed to creating a healthy planet.
The Foundation has been approved as a 1%for the Planet Non-Profit Partner meaning that any 1% for the Planet business can now designate The Banff Community Foundation as its charity of choice. The Foundation is a grass roots charity building deep roots today with great visions for the future.
Whether you love Banff as a resident, as a frequent visitor, from near, or from afar, consider helping us build our Environment Fund. New in 2009, the Foundation has refocused its approach to “Environment” and our support for this sector. This fall, the Foundation is raising funds both for flow-through money for community environment grants in the short term and for an environment endowment fund that will support future generations.
