The benefits we have seen from Family and Friends is limitless. Due to their help to purchase equipment we have one of the most up to date Long term care buildings in the Province. Our residents and staff have everything they need to provide and receive the safest care possible. Our residents have access to equipment that keeps them safer and healthier, that they otherwise wouldn’t. Without the continued support from the Family and Friends Foundation, I hate to think where we would be.
As a non-profit organization we rely on donations, grants and fundraising proceeds for any major purchases and/or repairs that need to be done to the daycare. We have been fortunate enough to be recipients of the Family and Friends grant for several years. This grant has allowed the daycare to complete some major upgrades. We are please to say that the grant helped us complete all 8 sets of windows. This was a 7-year project! We are so grateful to be considered for the grant and hope to be for years to come.
LAC has been grateful and so appreciative of the support from FFF which has made it possible for the Langenburg Arts Council to
reach its many fund-raising goals. Over the years the Arts Council has received in excess of $26,000.00 The George Layh Theatre is a hub of cultural activity for the community and surrounding area.
It continues to be a vibrant centre of the arts thanks to such community support.

I choose to donate to Family and Friends through their various fundraiser to help my community. I appreciate that the funds stay local and that I can see firsthand the difference this foundation makes to our area. We are extremely fortunate to have them and the board that works tirelessly to manage it.

Over the years we have been involved in a number of projects to improve green spaces, sidewalks, etc. in town. We would like there to be funds available to continue and expand that work. The foundation serves that purpose. The money is invested and the interest is used to fund projects. That is why we started our fund,
