Introducing the Lower Mainland Collective

Mark PetersenClients

We’re excited to share a bold initiative from Stronger Philanthropy: the Lower Mainland Collective, a new, collaborative major donor group committed to fueling innovative charity work in BC’s Lower Mainland. In 2026, this group of engaged families will allocate up to $500,000 in grants toward creative, sustainable solutions that help address pressing local needs.

This isn’t just another funding stream — it’s a chance for charities doing meaningful work to be seen and supported by a group of donors who want impact that lasts. The Lower Mainland Collective is especially interested in community-rooted projects that demonstrate promise, clear outcomes, and scalable potential.
