SIMPLE GENEROSITY
CELEBRATING COMMUNITY LEADERSHIP
Simple Generosity began in recognition of Canada 150 – Island Savings celebrated community leadership across BC by recognizing local volunteers, non-profit organizations and charities that are making meaningful contributions in our communities.
We were so inspired by the amazing stories that we are continuing to spread Simple Generosity in our communities and celebrating community leadership, volunteerism and simple ideas that help our communities thrive!
VOLUNTEER AWARDS
We’re selecting volunteers and empowering them to make a $1,000 donation, courtesy of Island Savings to the non-profit of their choice.
NEIGHBOURHOOD GRANTS
We're gifting $500 #SimpleGenerosity neighbourhood grants to individuals to support local grassroots ideas, events and initiatives focused on building stronger and more connected communities.
Have you ever received a million dollars with a simple goal to do #good things?
In 2021, that's exactly what happened when a team of people from across First West came together with our local BC communities to provide a record-breaking amount of Simple Generosity. Click play to see how it went.
