2020 Grants
2020 was a year of challenges and changes. Here at the Astley Family Foundation, we did some things the same as previous years and also made changes due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Lyle
S. Hallman Foundation, United Way Waterloo Region Communities,
Kitchener Waterloo Community Foundation, Social Venture Partners
Waterloo Region, The Astley Family Foundation, Fairmount Foundation and
Cambridge & North Dumfries Community Foundation recently joined
forces to maximize assistance for urgent and emerging community needs in
response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The funder’s collective is working
together to raise and distribute funds to front line organizations that
are striving to ensure our most vulnerable citizens and those that
support them remain supported, safe and healthy.
The
Astley Family Foundation contributed $71,000 to the total pool of
over $800,000 now being distributed to 43 charities across Waterloo
Region in response to applications to the COVID-19 Community Response
Fund.
This funding is being directed to
charitable organizations working with vulnerable populations across
Waterloo Region. It will assist organizations that expressed urgent need
to continue providing front-line social services through essential
programming as well as health and safety for charitable front line
workers.
