Established in 1988, the North Shore Community Foundation serves the geographic areas of North Vancouver, West Vancouver, Bowen Island and Lions Bay.  The Foundation was created in response to community needs.  To date the Foundation has contributed in excess of $500,000 in support of over 400 community project and scholarships throughout the North Shore. 

The Foundation’s core purposes are to:

1. professionally manage trust funds and endowment funds

2. distribute the net income from each fund by grants within the North Shore community.

The Foundation has grown from a balance sheet value of a few hundred dollars in 1988 to a current capital of over $1.3 million (2008) in 22 funds. We are incorporated under the Societies Act of British Columbia and are registered as a Charitable Organization with the Canada Revenue Agency.
