About Us
The Yellowknife Community Foundation was started in 1993 to give people and organizations a way to support local projects for the long term. Our vision is to be a catalyst for sharing, supportive, and connected communities.

Our Mission
The Yellowknife Community Foundation is a charity that helps people give back in meaningful ways across Yellowknife and the NWT. We connect donors with local needs by providing grants, raising funds, investing wisely, and sharing information with the public.
