The BGC Canada Foundation Board was originally established in 1968 to oversee the Boys Clubs of Canada Endowment Fund. This fund was the result of a major capital fundraising campaign to create a $1,000,000 endowment as a permanent financial resource for national operations. The Endowment Fund updated its name in 1983 to the Boys and Girls Clubs of Canada Endowment Fund, and in 1995 became the Boys and Girls Clubs of Canada Foundation.
The Boys and Girls Clubs of Canada Foundation oversees endowment funds, scholarships, and the J.W. McConnell Trust Fund. View the Foundation’s financial statements for 2023, 2022, and 2021.
