Announcement: Government Support for a BC Non-Profit Network
By Vantage Point
We have some great news to share! On Friday, February 9, 2024, Parliamentary Secretary for Community Development and Non-Profits, Megan Dykeman, and the Government of British Columbia announced $650,000 in funding to support Vantage Point to lead the development of a non-profit network in our province!
We offer whole-hearted thanks to the Government of British Columbia and PS Dykeman for this acknowledgement and to Spencer Chandra Herbert, MLA for Vancouver-West End, Hamidullah Abawi from MOSAIC, Dan Huang-Taylor from Food Banks BC, and Anoop Gill from QMUNITY for the support shared in this news release distributed on Friday:
It was exciting to see the announcement featured in several publications from across the province over the weekend! The Langley Advance Times, Prince George Daily News, and Indo-Canadian Voice were just a few we thought you might like to read.
This investment in our network-building efforts provides great encouragement knowing that, together, we will be able to do even more to connect the people and resources that will build a stronger non-profit sector in BC. Earlier last week, our partners at Vancouver Foundation and hua foundation wrote a wonderful story about the support they believe that a provincial network could provide for organizations. We encourage you to read their perspectives as well.
