Mission Community Foundation Funds
Donate to any of our funds below, or filter based on a category of interestThe first fund entrusted to the Mission Foundation in 1987 was through the estate of the late Margaret Erskine, in the amount of $228,000 to be dedicated to post-secondary education for the students of Mission. Since then, we have received monies from many organizations and citizens in Mission and the Fraser Valley Regional District and are pleased to say that we now have 84 different funds totaling just over 4.2 Million Dollars.
We consider it an honor to be entrusted with these funds and disburse them based on our benefactors wishes. The monies are held in trust, invested prudently, and the interest monies are disbursed through scholarships and bursaries as well as dedicated funding for specific fields of interest.
Who benefits from these funds?
Middle School students can receive a GW Cooke award for Math or Science Excellence. This award is a form of encouragement to students to stay on track with their education and to continue to contribute to the community through friendship and volunteerism.
Secondary School students can apply to receive Bursaries & Scholarships from a variety of funds dedicated to general and specific educational paths. Each year, we review, interview, and select recipients based on academic achievement overall as well as academics their chosen field, all around achievement which takes into account volunteerism, sports, arts and work experience. Written and verbal communication skills as well as general knowledge of the community and world are also scored. We then look at the career paths stated by the students and match them to award monies available.
Organizations benefit in the form of Grants from the Foundation. We have several dedicated funds for the benefit and enhancement of the community. These grants are disbursed three times yearly.
If you are interested in starting a fund for a specific field of interest or a scholarship, please contact our Office Manager at 604.826.5322 and she can give you further information on how you can leave a legacy for others to remember you by.
Albert McMahon Mission City Rotary Fund
Providing grants to children of special circumstances and therefore in need of help.
Read MoreAlbert McMahon Mission City Rotary Fund
This Fund was established in 1989 by the Rotary Club of Mission Sunrise as a memorial to Albert McMahon.
Mr. McMahon was one of the first members to join the Mission Rotary Club and he helped steward the growth of the Club in the early days. A quiet philanthropist, Mr. McMahon wanted to ensure that every child had the best possible opportunity to succeed and would donate monies towards education, housing or whatever was required. He donated land for a school and provided personal scholarships through Mission Senior Secondary School starting in 1954. If there was a sports team that needed a sponsor, he was there.
The Rotary Club felt that Mr. McMahon should be memorialized for his contributions to the community. This Fund is dedicated to providing funding for children within the District of Mission who are in special circumstances, and therefore in need of help. Funding has been used to provide both scholarships and granting for this purpose.
If you would like to help children succeed, donate today!

Bill and Linda Clark Sports Fund
This fund was created for children in grades K to 12, to provide funding for equipment and coaching upgrades (excluding wages) for minor boys and girls sports in Mission.
Read MoreBill and Linda Clark Sports Fund
Bill & Linda Clark are long time Mission residents who have been involved in our community in various ways. Linda worked as an advertising sales and marketing representative for the Mission Record and Bill was a realtor for more than 30 years.
Bill also played on the UBC Thunderbirds Volleyball team that took the Canadian University (CIAU) title in 1967. This earned them a spot in the 1967 World Student Games in Tokyo. It was in Tokyo that the team helped change the game in Canada and in 2002 the team was inducted into the UBC Sports Hall of Fame. In 2018 the team, including Bill and three other teammates from Mission, were recognized as pioneers in the sport when they were inducted into the Volleyball BC Hall of Fame.
Linda’s hobbies are of an artistic nature. She’s an accomplished actor, singer, an artist, loves to enjoy Mother Nature whenever possible, and volunteers at the Clarke Theatre. Linda joined the Mission Community Foundation Board of Directors in 2017 and through her work on the Board saw a need for a sporting fund. With her husband’s affinity for sports, it made sense to create a fund that would assist young children in finding healthy alternatives to video games and boredom.
This fund was created for children in grades K to 12, to provide funding for equipment and coaching upgrades (excluding wages) for minor boys and girls sports in Mission.

Derrough Fund
Providing grants for musical equipment and sheet music to registered charities as well as scholarships to students studying music.
Read MoreDerrough Fund
Dennis and Joan Derrough love music, this is evident weekly as they attend all the Concerts in the Park during the summer.
Their fund is designed to help schools and organizations purchase equipment and sheet music, and for the last few years has been used to add to the School District’s music departments by purchasing hand bells and percussion instruments.
When not used for equipment, this fund has a secondary purpose of providing scholarships to students studying music.
Edwin S Richards Arts Based Curriculum School is grateful for the support it has received from the Mission Community Foundation. In particular, a grant from the Derrough Fund has enabled the school to share its music with the local community through the purchase of 30 music stands. This has made it possible for our tone chime and hand bell choir to perform outside the school. In addition, the purchase of music stands has allowed the school to add a beginner band class to its comprehensive music program. ` Sharon Widdows, principal

Read MoreGlen Kask Theatrical Legacy Fund
Glen has been involved in entertainment industry most of his life. Working as a broadcaster, newspaper man, photographer and writer, he has been fortunate to experience many live arts venues.
”Establishing the fund with the Mission Community Foundation was my way of giving back to the artistic community some of what they had given me over the years. I could never have afforded to buy tickets to all the events for which I received complimentary tickets so this fund is intended to help those groups that were a help to me in my work”.
Glen has advised local youth groups to apply for funding for their theatrical productions and since then, the fund has supported groups such as Youth Unlimited – Jester’s Theatre in their annual productions.
The Mission Community Foundation has been a backbone of support for our costuming department over the last several years. Each year at our shows, we hear rave reviews from both our participants and their parents and also from audience members, ‘What amazing costumes’. Every year we see the students put on their costumes and become someone new, someone confident and we are amazed to see how far they have come. Many of our students struggle with rejection, anxiety and learning challenges. We are thrilled to see them grow to the point where they are able to mentor ones younger than themselves to overcome in the face of adversity, and to be a good friend. These students have found a place where they belong and thrive.
Our deepest gratitude goes out to the Mission Community Foundation through the Glen Kask Fund for making this possible.”

Hollister General Fund
This scholarship is offered to students pursuing post-secondary training.
Read MoreHollister General Fund
Strong advocates for the youth of our community, Vic & Hilda Hollister believed in post-secondary education.
“Students are our country’s future, I want to do everything I can to help students afford a quality university education”. ~ Victor Hollister
While serving on a task force in the early 90’s, Vic investigated different ways to improve the transition rate from high school to post-secondary schooling amongst Mission students.
“When we first moved here, it seemed like there weren’t a lot of graduates going on to post-secondary education.” ~ Hilda Hollister
Vic discovered that distance to post-secondary education was a large barrier for most students and he worked on committees to bring UCFV to Mission. With the opening of Heritage Park Campus, Vic’s dream was realized.
The Hollister family was important to the development of the Mission Community Foundation. By creating many funds they donated 20% of the overall capital of the Foundation in the early days. Funds created in the Hollister name are dedicated to education; and they also made anonymous contributions to other funds.
“Anything that was for the good of the community, Vic took an interest in” ~ Doug Adair, former DOM Councilor.
The Hollister funds held at Mission Community Foundation are dedicated to advancing our community through higher education. Permission to transfer interest earned within the funds has been granted so that Mission Community Foundation is able to annually assist a greater number of students. If there are more applications in engineering than sciences, the Board can move the funding over and provide more scholarships.
This fund will provide a scholarship to a graduating SD75 student enrolled in any course of study at Trinity Western University.

To provide grants to organizations preventing alcohol and drug abuse, or training for dance and gymnastics.
Read MoreJonson Bequest Fund
Marta Jonson immigrated to Canada, married Axel Jonson and after the flood of 1949 they settled in the Dewdney area.
As a young girl in Finland, Marta was a top gymnast in school. To remain fit, she took up ballet as an adult. Marta was also affected by substance abuse through others in her life.

Reel on the River Fund
To provide support to registered charities dedicated to furthering arts in Mission.
Read MoreReel on the River Fund
The REEL on the RIVER Fund is a granting fund that was created in 2012 with the goal of supporting the arts in Mission.
A group of Mission women interested in showing independent, Canadian and foreign films in Mission started Reel on the River film series in the fall of 2008. This was done with the assistance of Film Circuit and the Toronto International Film Festival. Their idea was to show films that would not normally be brought in to the local theatre. Their goal was not to make a profit but to be sure to cover their costs. After each series there is always a small amount of money left over. They decided that by using that money to create a fund with Mission Community Foundation, their legacy of supporting art, in this case film, in Mission would continue for years to come.
The grants from this fund have been used to support groups like Kids Art in the Park through the Mission Arts Council and the Jesters Theatre.

Helping Hand (by Robin Sorrell)
Give a hand to the lame,
Those that cannot see,
They shall find contentment,
And grateful, they shall be.
An errand for the elderly,
Or a letter for to post,
A pensioner needs groceries,
Being helpful is the most.
Weed a neighbours garden,
And mow another’s lawn,
Tasks really never end,
They just go on and on.
Just a helping hand,
To the needy lend,
Gives one such comfort,
And gains another friend.
Don’t put off until tomorrow,
The good you can do today,
Faint hearts help no one,
But good deeds really pay.
