The Dufferin Community Foundation have presented the Streams Community Hub with a $18,000 grant for their new space (currently under construction).
This is the first grant from the fund, which was established in 2020 by the Greenwood family as part of Dufferin Community Foundation’s donor-advised fund program.
Annual income from the permanently invested charitable fund will be used to support local programs for children and youth every year in perpetuity.
“One of the things that we care about as a family is helping young people learn and experience new things that will shape their futures,” said Greenwood family member Amie Zukowski.
“Streams Community Hub is a place where kids from every walk of life can pick up an instrument or a camera or paint brush and get really creative.”
