About Quesnel Woodlot

The Quesnel Community Foundation exists to meet the needs of our community through the growth and management of permanent endowment funds. We operate under the premise that all donations received will be used to generate investment income which fund our Grants. The capital created by those donations is never spent. As our endowment grows, our ability to fund Grants also grows. Your gift will last, and give, forever.
