Mississippi Mills Community Fund
The Mississippi Mills Community Fund (MMCF) is a new initiative created by local community builders who are passionate about strengthening and supporting Mississippi Mills.
The Ottawa Community Foundation has been chosen as our partner to provide expertise in fund administration and investment. MMCF is responsible for all local activities and decision-making.
This collaboration ensures that our fund grows sustainably, respects donor wishes, and provides impactful grants tailored to Mississippi Mills’ unique needs, fostering a flourishing community where every resident has access to essential resources.
It does not compete with other fundraising efforts; rather, it provides a vehicle to make your charitable dollars grow.
The first community fund was launched a hundred years ago in Cleveland, Ohio. Since then, they have spread throughout the US, Canada and the world.
Their mission is to serve their communities by attracting donors and using funds donated to help local charities meet the specific needs of their communities. There are now over 200 community foundations in Canada.
In 1986, the Ottawa Community Foundation was founded and has been instrumental in the development of new community funds in our region. Now a community fund is coming to Mississippi Mills to serve OUR community.
