The Victoria Foundation & Black Press - Working Together - how philanthropy shapes our community

With over 1000 registered charitable organizations in our region, understanding the scope and breadth of the work they do is daunting. With the monthly Philanthropy page, our goal is to increase the profile of these local non-profits and educate readers about the importance of these organizations to our community.

By working together, the Foundation and Black Press can have broad community reach and profile. The goal of our stories is to demonste project excellence - and how philanthropy changes lives for the better, everyday.
