THANK YOU to our Indigenous Voices Fund donors!

We are delighted to announce that we will be able to award up to $13,000 in grants this year thanks to a wonderful group of community donors, a $1000 donation from the Rotary Indigenous Peoples Partnership Cluster, $600 donation from The Meeting House – Sandbanks (plus $500 in donated proceeds from a music event they recently held!), and of course our Indigenous Voices Fund donor The Elderberry Fund (Sarah & Dave) who will match every dollar from our June fundraising campaign to help cover other program costs, including paying industry-standard fees to Indigenous peer assessors.
