WHAT WE DO

The Central Okanagan Foundation connects people to causes that matter. We encourage contributions to endowment funds that provide long-term, sustainable support for community charities. We also enable donors to make an immediate impact by flowing through donations directly to charitable causes.

WHAT IS AN ENDOWMENT FUND?

An endowment fund is one in which all donations are pooled and then invested. The investment income is distributed as grants to local charitable organizations. The capital continues to grow with each new gift, generating income that meets a wide range of community needs for years to come.

Your donation is not just a charitable gift for today; but also for tomorrow...and forever!
