The Community Foundation of Newfoundland and Labrador (CFNL) is a unique registered charity. The foundation's goal is to help people from all walks of life support the causes they feel are priorities in their communities and their province. To achieve this goal, CFNL pools and invests the gifts of many donors to create permanent endowment funds for communities in Newfoundland and Labrador.

Benefits to donors:
The Community Foundation of Newfoundland and Labrador can serve as a ‘philanthropic partner’ for people who wish to establish a permanent, yet flexible, method to fund current and future charitable gifts.
How you can help:
We welcome gifts of all sizes. Gifts can include cash, real estate, stock, artwork and insurance. Donors can choose to support the foundation broadly or designate a favourite cause or charity.
Flexibility is key. We will work with you to address your specific interests and tailor a program that suits your immediate and long-term goals.
Many charities also place their endowment funds with community foundations in order to benefit from greater returns on their investments.
Part of a growing movement:
Newfoundland and Labrador is joining one of Canada’s fastest growing charitable networks. We are among more than 180 community foundations located across the country.
Together these foundations hold more than $3.1 billion in combined assets. By 2012, Canadian community foundations provided $154 million in grants to support local priorities.
Our foundation is also linked to others through Community Foundations of Canada, a national network that supports the country’s community foundations.
