Dear Field Hockey Centre Donors,
Here is the first update of 2022:
Funding Update
We are continuing to meet and update the Federal Agency for Southern Ontario (FedDev) regarding our application for $ 750 000 in infrastructure funding. We hope to have a decision soon. They appear to be monitoring our activity on social media so sharing and liking posts can be very helpful!
We are thrilled, and a bit humbled frankly, by the support of the Jindal Foundation. This foundation has been working to improve the lives of people all over the world and specifically providing funding for basic services in rural communities. The foundation’s focus is on clean water, sanitation, solar lighting, schools, nutrition, and IT. You can read about their work here http://www.vdpi.ca/. The Jindal Foundation has donated $25 000 to our project. Our sincerest thanks to Mrs. and Dr. Jindal. To say that we are grateful for the confidence they have shown in our project would be an understatement to say the least.
The Big Stick
We have a few pictures and stickers on the big stick now and are showcasing our lovely donors through these posts on social media. I will be getting out on the road again soon to visit. For those of you who live outside Ottawa I will contact you to make arrangements and maybe just maybe this spring we can actually travel and visit you!
Little More Help
- If you are on Social media, please take a moment to share our posts
- Know anyone working in local media? Let us know!
- We are always looking for volunteers and now are needed more than ever
Look forward to seeing you on your doorstep!
Thank you again for supporting the project
