Kawartha Lakes Opportunity Fund
Our Purpose
Support the Kawartha Community Foundation’s work to grow charitable giving, administer funds and scholarships, and help community initiatives strengthen Kawartha Lakes.
Our Project
Operations
While we are efficient, we do have basic costs that allow us to function and support all of our initiatives, such as office staff, IT expenses, communication, bookkeeping and auditing costs to demonstrate that we are being prudent, efficient and effective with the money that has been entrusted to us.
Digital Infrastructure
We offer a robust, secure, digital, turnkey infrastructure to attract funds, process donations or manage funds for initiatives to the benefit of the community. These shared services offer efficiencies to community led efforts.
Vital Signs
Support our community research program Vital Signs. We will use local data and local knowledge to measure the health and vitality of our community and support action towards improving collective quality of life for all. This will be one of the most strategic endeavours we will undertake.
