About Philanthropy in Action

Philanthropy in Action celebrates the generosity that makes our community stronger. Since 2010, we’ve recognized individuals, families, businesses, and groups whose kindness and compassion help our community thrive.

If you know someone who goes above and beyond to help others, we’d love to share their story. Together, let’s celebrate generosity in action.

    strengthen our community.

  • Spirit of Giving

    They lead with kindness, sharing their time,
    energy, or resources to help others, and
    inspire generosity in those around them.

    They’re deeply engaged in the place we call
    home. Whether volunteering, supporting local initiatives, or helping the Fredericton Community Foundation make lasting impact.
