Hamilton Community Foundation information


Hamilton Community Foundation (HCF) is a Community Foundation that pools donations and Financial endowments into a coordinated investment and grant-making facility dedicated primarily to the social improvement of Hamilton, Ontario. Its current President and CEO is Terry Cooke, the former Regional Municipality of Hamilton-Wentworth regional chair and Hamilton Spectator columnist.

HCF is the oldest community foundation in Ontario. It was founded in 1954 and modeled after Winnipeg Community Foundation, the first Community foundation in Canada. The concept of a permanent endowment that issued grants was unfamiliar to Hamiltonians at first, and HCF secured just $100 in gifts in its first year. However, its gifts and endowments grew steadily and it reached $10 million in assets by the Foundation's 40th anniversary in 1995. Today, the Foundation’s assets stand at some $193 million.[1]

HCF is governed by a board of directors who are selected by a nominating committee that consists of the Mayor, Chief of Police, President of the Hamilton Chamber of Commerce, President of the Hamilton Law Association, and Chair of the United Way of Burlington and Greater Hamilton and up to two members at large.
