Due to ongoing interest from members we are presenting an evening dedicated to the process of securing grants. We have invited 2 speakers - Maggie Fischbuch of the Ontario Trillium Foundation and Jim Boyd of the Brampton & Area Community Foundation to come and speak to us about their organizations and their respective granting processes. This workshop is an excellent way to
become up to date on the current grants available.

Brampton & Area
Community Foundation
How to Apply for a Grant
from the BACF
Session Overview: The Brampton and Area Community Foundation (BACF) builds
and manages permanent endowment funds and other gifts. The BACF is Brampton's
only community foundation - and therefore the only Brampton-based community
foundation to provide funding, through grants, to charitable organizations.
Learn how your group may apply at this session and how the Brampton Arts Council
may be able to assist not-for-profit organizations that are members but not
charitable.
Speaker - James Boyd,
CEO, Brampton and Area Community Foundation. Jim has been the CEO/Executive
Director of the Brampton and Area Community Foundation since June 2004. Before
then, Jim worked in real estate, banking with the Royal Bank of Canada and
finance-brokering for importers of manufactured products. Jim's background
in sales, finance and politics provided the experience necessary to run an
organization, such as a foundation, that deals in large financial gifts, trust
agreements and adherence to Canada Revenue Agency regulatory requirements.
In Jim's time at the Brampton and Area Community Foundation, assets have increased
from $1.2 to $4.7 million; grants to charities have increased from less than
20 to over 230. Jim graduated from St. Andrew's College in 1983; University
of Toronto (Victoria College) in 1987 with a B.A. in History and Political
Studies. |
