The mythological Phoenix bird, rising from the ashes is a universal symbol of immortality. The Phoenix Foundation was established in 1997 as reflection of the great values that individuals, families and businesses place on the Boundary area, its heritage, its people and its communities of Beaverdell, Bridesville, Christina Lake, Grand Forks, Greenwood, Midway and Rock Creek. Through contributions from donors, the Foundation assembles and administers permanent endowments so the income can be eternally reinvested in our community. Through our granting process, the revenue from these endowments supports local charitable organizations, community projects and initiatives for today and into the future.

The Phoenix Foundation recognizes that our Boundary community needs many things to be a place where people choose to live and work. It needs a vision for the future. It needs to be a safe place to live. It needs easily accessible resources for its residents. It needs affordable artistic, athletic and cultural programs. It needs dedicated people who care enough about their community to make it better. It needs funding for community activities and programs.

To donors, the Phoenix Foundation offers expert assistance in learning more about the causes they care about, and the ability to make positive change by contributing with others that share similar interests. To the community at large, the foundation offers a permanent, growing source of funds for community projects, leadership grants and scholarships.

The Phoenix Foundation helps the people of the Boundary area by encouraging philanthropy and funding charitable activities. Through contributions from donors, the Foundation assembles and administers permanent pools of capital so the returns can be perpetually reinvested in our community. The foundation complements and supports other charitable agencies.
