a foundation at the heart of the community
The Foundation supports and assists the people of Prescott-Russell in their personal and professional development and ensures through its projects and grants that everyone feels included in their neighborhood.
THE PROJECTS WE CARE ABOUT
-
Community Leadership
The Foundation is about living to give back to our neighbors.
Being a community leader is about making your neighbourhood your real playground. Regardless of age, the Foundation encourages the next generation to become true community leaders.
-
Personal growth
The Foundation is the gentle push that you need to shine.
A thriving community exists through valued people who fill the roles they want to live. Personal development projects help individuals or groups in the community to grow, train, develop and equip themselves to make a difference in our region.
-
Social inclusion
The Foundation is the springboard that helps the individual or the community to dive into the beautiful things in life.
Social inclusion projects enable people who have challenges, who feel marginalized, who would like to participate in their community, or who have difficulty being themselves to others to develop to their full potential.
