Our Approach

We bring donors to the table as community builders.
Muskoka Community Foundation helps community builders formulate and realize their philanthropic goals by matching their interests and concerns with community needs and organizations. We help them find innovative and responsible ways to give their investments lasting impact.

We take the broadest view of what a community is and what it needs to succeed.
Muskoka Community Foundation grants support everything from shelter, sustenance and care for those most in need, to recreation, the arts and the environment.

We take the long-term view for our communities.
Muskoka Community Foundation identifies long-term needs and opportunities and invest in sustainable solutions, helping our communities become resilient, resourceful and ready for the future.

Commitment to reconciliation

As a Community Foundation operating on the traditional lands of the Ojibway, the Chippewa, the Algonquin and the Odawa, and home to three sovereign nations – Wahta Mohawks First Nations, Moose Deer Point First Nation and the Moon River Métis – we cannot walk in a good way if we do not honour all our relations in our communities, and actively work to address the impacts of colonialism on Indigenous peoples on these lands, both past and present.
