In January 2025, the Gordons established The Gordon Family Fund by making an initial contribution to the Community Foundation of Campbellford/Seymour and Northumberland. Over time, George and Margaret’s fund will continue to grow, through automatic monthly contributions, as well as through a bequest in their Will, thereby creating a legacy that extends far beyond the initial donation.
The couple provided the Community Foundation with a list of organizations that they have supported in the past, and as the fund grows, the distributions from their Fund will continue to provide long-term, valuable support to these organizations.
This Donor Designated Fund will support:
For George and Margaret, choosing the Community Foundation was essential to realizing their philanthropic vision. The Community Foundation provided the expertise and personal support needed to create their family fund, and they are assured that their fund is being managed with the highest level of care and transparency. This partnership not only helps ensure that their contribution is making a real difference, but also provides peace of mind, knowing that their philanthropic goals are in trusted hands.
We hope their journey serves as an inspiration to others who may be considering how they can make a difference.
