Donate to Children & Families
Are you looking to help BC families with children in need? Build bright futures for children in your community by starting a fund that supports our Children and Families Focus Area – allowing child-centred programs to thrive for years to come.
Children and Families funds give experts at Vancouver Foundation the flexibility to donate to underprivileged families who need the most help.
Focus Areas are Guided by Community Advisors
When you support a Focus Area, you join a powerful force of like-minded donors and community advisors to make a profound impact on the causes you care about. Our Focus Areas fuel our grant programs. Each program also has its own team of community advisors who are all experts in their fields. This team reviews grant applications and directs your donation to the ones.
