In communities across Prescott-Russell, Ottawa, Lanark County, and Renfrew County; we work with a network of smart, passionate and engaged donors, and partners to get to the root of local issues and support long-term solutions.

We are committed to 100% local impact. Ensuring that every dollar we invest remains in the community where it was raised—where it’s needed most and will have the greatest impact.
