Our Children's Legacy Fund

This fund was established in 2002 by Dave and Donna Rae to provide a way for their family to make a lasting contribution to the community that they love.

Our Children’s Legacy Fund is a donor-advised fund (meaning that the donor makes annual grant recommendations which are approved by the CVCF Board). The whole Rae family participates in this process by reviewing applications to the CVCF’s Community Grants program and selecting projects for funding that are meaningful to them.

Over the years, Our Children’s Legacy Fund has supported a wide variety of projects — ranging from new snowmobiles for Columbia Valley Search & Rescue to upgrades to fire suppression systems for the Columbia Valley Arts Council facility at Pynelogs to a traumatic grief counselling program provided by the Hospice Society of the Columbia Valley.
