How the Community Fund Builds Your Legacy

  • Built for the Future

    The world changes, but your gift keeps working. Since 1956, we’ve ensured every donation adapts to meet tomorrow’s needs.

  • Flexible by Design

    Our community volunteers guide funding to where it’s needed most, even when challenges are unpredictable or don’t make the headlines.

  • Rooted in Community

    Your fund supports local charities and causes across the region. You can dedicate your giving broadly or focus on the issues closest to your heart.

  • The Power of Growth

    Because your fund is invested, it grows over time. That means your impact keeps multiplying, year after year.

How It Works

A gift today becomes a ripple of support for generations. Endowed funds are invested, and each year, earnings are distributed to local charities, fueling causes that matter across the greater Fredericton region.

  • “You have to remember who is looking after you and that’s the community. If the community didn’t support Jason Munn of RE/MAX East Coast Elite Realty, I wouldn’t have a business. When the community is willing to show their support to you, you need to roll up your sleeves, show your support for the community and give back where it matters. It’s not all about money, it’s about doing what’s right.” y
