You can support the causes closest to your heart without having to choose a specific charity. By directing your gift to a Focus Area, our experts and advisors will ensure your gift responds to the most relevant, pressing needs of the community — now and into the future.
Donate to Animal Welfare Projects
Are you passionate about animal welfare and eager to support animal charities?
Make a difference today by starting a fund that supports our Animal Welfare Focus Area — a gift that will offer long-term support to animals in need. Your fund will provide experts at Vancouver Foundation the flexibility to support charities, programs, and strategies that most impact animals through research, education, and care.
Focus Areas are Guided by Community Advisors
When you support a Focus Area, you join a powerful force of like-minded donors and community advisors to make a profound impact on the causes you care about. Our Focus Areas fuel our grant programs. Each program also has its own team of community advisors who are all experts in their fields. This team reviews grant applications and directs your donation to the ones.
