Community Fund
Small gifts. Big ripples. Lasting impact.
Every gift to the Community Fund — big or small — is pooled together and invested.
Like ripples on water, each donation overlaps with others, creating waves of change that reach across the greater Fredericton region.
As the Fund grows, so does its impact. Year after year, the earnings are granted back to local charities, fueling programs that tackle food insecurity, strengthen mental health, open doors for students, support the arts, and more.

Pooled and Invested

Earnings Granted Back
Each year, the Fund generates earnings that are distributed to charities — forever.
