Foundation Partnerships

At Union Gospel Mission we treasure the relationships we have with all of our Foundation partners. The following foundations represent some of our valued foundation partners. We are deeply grateful for the generosity and kindness of our current partners.

Special thank you to the Vancouver Foundation for partnering with us through two generous grants.

1. An Access to Benefits Advocacy Fund grant of $150,000 was awarded to Union Gospel Mission. This grant will provide multi-year program funding for organizations that provide advice and assistance to individuals and families to access benefit programs they are eligible to receive, such as assistance to file personal tax returns, CPP, Old Age Security etc. 

   We are thankful for the generous support of this grant from Vancouver Foundation as it will support our community events such as our annual Summer Connect and Super Clinics that are held 3 times a year at UGM.

    

2. A Lighthouse Organizations Fund grant of $993,000 was awarded to Union Gospel Mission. The Lighthouse Organizations Fund is a new $22.9 million fund made possible through the Stronger Community Services Fund from Government of BC to distribute multi-year operational grants for charities addressing poverty reduction and social inclusion across the province.

   We are thankful for the generous support of this grant from Vancouver Foundation as it will help us continue to be able to offer our life-changing programs including but not limited to meals, shelter, outreach, recovery programs, community events and more.
