Only 5 more weeks until Christmas! Are you ready? "The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear." - Buddy the Elf

- When our community was facing uncertainty at the start of the pandemic, the CFSEA Board of Directors decided to repurpose the Spring Smart & Caring grants to address the urgent and immediate needs across our region. Over two months, the grants committee met and recommended funding to 18 charities in SEAB totaling $104,030! The Brooks Food Bank Foundation received $8,000 to ensure people would have access to food.

National Philanthropy Day celebrates the charitable work that EVERYONE does to make a difference and create impact in their communities. We want to thank our valued donors, volunteers and community champions who continue to support southeast Alberta! #philanthropy #NPD2020 https://afpglobal.org/NPDLove
