Comox Valley Community Foundation is delighted to announce that Odlum Brown Limited will return as the Diamond Event Sponsor for the annual fundraising Gala for the next three years.
“We count on the funds raised from the Gala event to off set the Foundation’s administrative costs. Having this kind of long term commitment from a major sponsor is a wonderful gift,” said Gala Committee Chair RaeAnn Hartman.
Odlum Brown was founded 90 years ago and has always had a keen interest in the community. Many decades ago, one of the firm’s founders, Tom Brown, was greatly involved with the Vancouver Foundation and members of Odlum Brown continue that tradition in the Comox Valley.
“We are very proud to uphold the values and beliefs of our founders by embracing the spirit of philanthropy,” said Janine Martin, Branch Manager, Director, and Associate Portfolio Manager of Odlum Brown Limited. “Supporting the Comox Valley Community Foundation provides a wonderful opportunity to carry on the vision and traditions that are a part of Odlum Brown’s culture.” Carrying on Odlum Brown’s longstanding commitment to support the community is of utmost importance to Martin, “I can think of no better way of doing that than by supporting the CV Community Foundation.”
The Comox Valley Community Foundation provides donors the opportunity to help a broad range of local charities, without choosing just one. It supports needs as the needs arise, today and in perpetuity.
The annual CV Community Foundation fundraising Gala takes place Saturday, October 19, 2013.
