You can be part of Coquitlam’s giving heart without breaking the bank. You do not have to have $10,000 to set up a fund to make a difference, you can simply donate whatever amount you can and still make a difference.
There are three ways you can support the Coquitlam Foundation. They are:
- Donate online
You can either pick the fund you want to support by going to the Grants or Bursaries & Scholarship select the fund that appeals to you and at the bottom you can click on the “Donate Now” button to donate online. You can also donate directly to the Coquitlam Foundation’s Community Grant by clicking below
- Send us a cheque
You can send a cheque made payable to the Coquitlam Foundation to 1207 Pinetree Way, Coquitlam, BC, V3B 7Y3. If you want to indicate the fund you would like this to go to , please do so in the memo field, otherwise it will be applied to the Coquitlam Foundation Community Grants, which supports a number of priorities throughout the community.
- Attend our fund-raising events.
The Coquitlam Foundation is a small community foundation and charges each fund a small administrative fee in order to pay for day-to-day expenses. In order to keep that fee low, the Foundation hold fund-raising events like Kickn’ it Count, a Gala or a Burger and a Beer night. The money raised at these events go to support the Foundation’s administrative work and by attending you are supporting the Foundation. Check out our upcoming events.
Remember, you can always set up your own fund with as little as $2,500 each year for four years or $10,000. To see how click on Establish Fund & Give.
You can always contact our executive director if you have questions by e-mailing him at executive_director@coquitlamfoundation.com.
