Annual General Meeting - CFC Conference 2008

Community Foundations of Canada
Annual General Meeting

Saturday Nov 8 1:15 p.m. – 2:30 p.m.

Defining our National Brand
Monica Patten, President and CEO of Community Foundations of Canada, will unveil details of CFC’s national branding process for the community foundation movement, after the business portion of the AGM is concluded.


The goals of the branding process are:

  • To provide the movement, as a collective, with a compelling new vision that defines our added value in today’s crowded and competitive marketplace
  • To position community foundations as leaders on community issues and philanthropy
  • To create a stronger sense of the community foundation movement as a national force in our country, thereby raising its national and local profile
  • To grow Canada’s philanthropic pie and attract new resources to the community foundation movement and CFC

Each CFC Member foundation attending the AGM will receive a special Branding Toolkit.*
