What is a Community Foundation?


Healthy and vibrant communities, enabled through long-term social investment.

This is our vision. WBCF helps you give back to your community in meaningful ways. We connect people, families and companies with causes that inspire them within Fort McMurray Wood Buffalo. We are passionate about collaborating with others in the community to affect positive social investment.

Helping Good People do GREAT Things.

Most of our donors are ordinary people doing extraordinary things. How do you want to give back to your community? What causes are important to you? Find out more on how we can work together to build your lasting legacy.

In the spirit of reconciliation, we acknowledge that we live, learn, work and play on Treaty 8 Territory,

the traditional meeting grounds and gathering places of Cree, Dene, and Métis people.

May we work together to be good stewards of this land.
