Every year, St. Andrew’s uses its endowment fund to help local non-profits and charities with their projects in our community. The groups apply to our Endowment Fund Committee, outlining their plans and how they would use the money. The committee decides on the recipients and the amounts.

November 6 was Endowment Sunday, and the recipients were invited to a service at St. Andrew’s, followed by a potluck. After the potluck, they were handed the cheques for their chosen activity by Archdeacon Nancy and had the opportunity to talk about their initiatives in our community. It was a wonderful morning of outreach into our community!

The following is the list of charities and non-profits beyond our doors that received these funds this year.

  • Backpack for Migrant Workers
  • County Kids Read
  • ROC Youth Services
  • Awana International
  • Wellington Community Association
  • Alternatives for Women
  • Medical Equipment Redistribution
  • Parkinson's Support Group
  • Alongside Hope "Power On"
