Deadline: 15-Mar-2024

The Community Foundation is seeking applications for the Henry S. Varley Fund for Rural Life to enhance and sustain a high quality of life in the rural communities of southwestern Alberta.

The Henry S. Varley Fund for Rural Life was established by local rancher William “Bill” Long and named in memory of his uncle, Henry Stewart Varley. The Varley family ranched southeast of Pincher Creek in the community of Fishburn for a century. The purpose of this fund is to provide support for a high quality of life throughout rural Southwestern Alberta, through organizations, projects, and initiatives that enhance rural communities. Grant applications to this fund are accepted twice yearly.

The Community Foundation’s Rural Life Grants Committee, comprised of Community Foundation directors and volunteers from across rural Southwestern Alberta, reviews and considers each application before making funding recommendations to the Board of Directors for final approval.
