The Pinawa Foundation, in partnership with the Community Foundations of Canada (CFC), has completed Round 2 of our program to distribute funds to assist local groups with Covid-related expenses. “We would again like to thank the CFC, the LGD of Pinawa, and Employment and Social Development Canada for all of their assistance” said Chris Saunders, Chairman of the Foundation. “We were able to distribute another $30,000 from the ESDC to groups in Pinawa during this difficult time. Over the past 8 months, $70,000 has been granted locally”.
The Foundation awarded grants to three groups in Round 2, including:
- Pinawa Club: $15,000 (assist with new floor/remove carpet)
- Children’s Place Co-op Daycare: $8,000 (equipment and supplies)
- LGD: $7,000 (compliance officer, supplies for the arena)
