Fund Type: Animal Welfare
Community: Prince George
The annual income from this fund goes directly to support the Northern SPCA.
We moved to Prince George in 1971 as newlyweds for the proverbial two years after passing on a job in London! I promised Brenda London and delivered PG! We left in 2005 after 34 years and our 50th Anniversary is this year! Brenda was employed by the Royal Bank for 13 years and I retired in 2003 after 27 years as a Partner with Deloitte & Touche LLP.
We loved living in Prince George, raising our family, making many lifelong friends and being involved in a city with a young vibrant population. Over the years we were both involved in community organizations including Board of CNC, Bel Canto Children’s Choir, Alpine Ski Team, UNBC Interim Governing Council, Rod & Gun Club and other civic organizations.
Our involvement with the Community Foundation started at the beginning in early 1995 as a member of the Steering Committee and continued to 2003 on the Investment Committee.
We had not planned to leave PG when we did, but we needed to be closer to our aging parents. We decided to contribute to our Family Fund after moving in 2005 because we have so many fond memories of the city and hopefully make a small ongoing difference.
