Jim and Gaetane Ashworth Community Fund

Jim & Gaetane shared a strong belief in helping the less fortunate members of our community. As part of honouring Gaetane’s memory after her death, Jim donated $150,000 in 2022 to establish the Jim & Gaetane Ashworth Community Fund. This fund will be used to provide annual grants to the areas of greatest need in the Columbia Valley. The flexibility of this gift will allow the CVCF to match grants to the current needs of our community now and forever.
