The Community Foundation of Newfoundland and Labrador's vision is thriving Newfoundland and Labrador communities where everyone belongs. The Community Foundation is a registered charity that helps individuals, businesses, governments and organizations invest in the communities they love by creating and managing charitable funds that support causes and local groups across the province.
Established in 2001, CFNL stewards more than $3 million in philanthropic investment for the benefit of the province, has facilitated granting of over $4 million and leads community knowledge initiatives like NL Vital Signs. We're part of Community Foundations of Canada (CFC), the national network for Canada's 200+ community foundations that, combined, stewards $9 billion in resources and reaches 90 percent of the country's geography.
