The Orcas Island Community Foundation (OICF) is a small but mighty foundation. It has freed up our staff time to do the real work of our Foundation building philanthropy to meet community need. All with an FTE of two.
Having a fully integrated program has allowed us to launch a Grants Catalog (www.giveorcas.org) which expands our annual grant making to the entire community and leverages our discretionary grant dollars significantly. What a gift.
Hilary Canty is Executive Director of the Orcas Island Community Foundation.
