Envision Financial staff nominate & grant $14K to 11 charities

There is a strong sense of community amoung Envision Financial employees and the recently announced, staff-nominated grants are further proof of just that. The Envision Employee Endowment Volunteer Committee recently met to review the slate of nominations received from staff for the $14,000 available in grants from the Envision-Region Employees’ Endowment this year. Wonderful stories and nominations were submitted by employees, all of which touched our hearts deeply and made the task of selecting the winning recipients quite a challenge.  After careful consideration, the Committee selected the following eleven charities:

$2,400 – Autism Society of British Columbia – Coquitlam
