The Sudbury Community Foundation is an independent public foundation and registered charity located in Sudbury, Ontario.

The Sudbury Community Foundation’s (SCF) inaugural Heart of the Crater FRIENDraiser was buzzing with energy as approximately 100 guests gathered on November 13, 2025, for an afternoon of inspiration, conversation and connection.

“We are thrilled to see such a positive response to this initiative,” said Kyle McCall, President of the Community Foundation, adding, “At our core, it is why the SCF exists. Our mission is to be a catalyst for strengthening our community by creating meaningful connections, and the Heart of the Crater Friendraiser helped do just that.”

Fourteen community charities that have been recipients of Community Grants or Social Investment Partnership Sudbury (SIPS) funding participated in the Friendraiser, sharing stories of impact and program outcomes with guests, which included elected officials, fund holders, volunteers, and representatives from various business sectors.

SCF is also pleased to confirm that over $10,000 was raised for the Sudbury Cares Fund through the generosity of our donors, including an anonymous donor who matched donations up to $5,000.
