Organizations that Benefit
The Burlington Community Fund has supported local citizens and non-profits groups in two ways – through our grant-making process, and by providing free or reduced access to Veterans Terrace for philanthropic purposes.
This support is generated by income from Veterans Terrace for weddings, banquets, and general use of the facility, and by donations to the Burlington Community Fund.
In the short time we have been in existence, the following organizations have benefited through these means.
Thanks to the generosity of philanthropists who call our community home, BCF continues to thrive and expand its influence.
