January  2017  

 

Dear  Community  Champion,  

 

If  you  are  reading  this  letter  and  report,  you  should  consider  yourself  a  Community  Champion.    I  would  like  to  thank  you  for  your  interest  in  the  Community  and  our  Community  Foundation.  

The  Temiskaming  Foundation  (TTF)  has  now  reached  an  amazing  6.7  million  dollars  in  endowment  funds,  giving  over  $300,000  back  to  our  community  in  2016  alone.    As  you  read  on,  you  will  discover  the  generosity  of  many  individuals  from  our  community  and  also,  many  living  outside  our  community.  

In  2017,  among  many  other  projects,  we  are  hoping  to  increase  our  Community  Funds.    These  types  of  funds  do  not  have  fund  restrictions  which  gives  the  committee  unrestricted  dollars  to  better  align  disbursements  where  the  community  needs  are.    The  disbursements  from  the  Community  Fund  in  2016  are  outlined  in  this  report,  making  a  difference  for  individuals  and  community  groups.  

Your  donation,  big  or  small  makes  a  positive  impact  on  our  community.      

I  would  like  to  thank  our  dedicated  Board  of  Directors  and  Advisors  for  their  commitment  and  dedication  to  making  the  TTF  what  it  is  today,  and  especially  Claire,  our  Executive  Director  for  continuously  going  beyond  the  call  of  duty  to  make  sure  everything  runs  accurately  and  efficiently.  

Thank  you,  

 

Michele  Lamoureux  President  The  Temiskaming  Foundation

One Foot Forward – Gord & Greyson Zubyck Fund

On December 26th, 2015 John & Shelly Zubyck suddenly lost their two-year-old son, Greyson. As a means to bring positivity from their tragic loss they honoured his short life with a memorial event in order to raise funds for the Gordon and Greyson Zubyck Memorial Fund through the Temiskaming Foundation.

The “One Foot Forward: Greyson Zubyck Memorial Dinner and Auction” took place on July 9th, 2016 in Temiskaming Shores. There was a fun run, golf at a privately owned course, and a sports charity dinner that took place in the evening.

These events raised $375,000 for the Gord & Greyson Zubyck Fund. The Zubyck Family recognizes the positive effects participation in sport have on youth and the goal for this fund is to provide support to youth sports programs, healthy active living activities and scholarships within Temiskaming Shores and surrounding area.

I give to (my charity of choice) the sum of $_________ to be used for its purposes. 2. I give to (my charity of choice) ____% of my residuary estate. 3. I divide my estate into as many equal shares as may be necessary to give one of such shares to each of my children and (my charity of choice)
