The Fund Fund Board

Over the past decade The FIG Fund has supported a wide array of programs throughout Newfoundland and Labrador and prides itself on the geographic and sectoral diversity of its granting.

Our funding comes from the generosity of our many supporters who donate either directly to the Fund or through our various fundraising events. Grants of $1000 to $5000 are made annually, with a requirement for a report and, where appropriate, pictures to share with our supporters.

Below, you can see a list of our previous recipients and read their reports. These reports constitute heartwarming evidence of the appreciation of support for woman and girls in need in our province, and the value of our grants in assisting them through eligible organizations.
