CAL LEGROW FOUNDATION The Cal LeGrow Foundation T he Cal LeGrow Foundation is a private, not-for-profit corporation established to direct the charitable giving of Cal LeGrow Insurance & Financial Group and its employees in Newfoundland and Labrador. Our mission is to give back to the community we serve by funding and supporting opportunities that inspire and impact youth. We define “youth” as any person who falls under the age of 18. To date, the Cal Legrow Foundation have raised almost $190,000 for youth facing barriers with a long term vision of reaching $1,000,0000. We provide resources that reduce the barriers our province’s youth face in reaching their full potential. These barriers could be socioeconomic, physical, mental, or emotional. For young people facing barriers in life, we will make a difference with financial support to create stronger futures. Our success will be defined by the number of young lives we’re able to impact! Do you have a project that inspires and impacts youth in a meaningful way? The Cal LeGrow Foundation awards grants twice a year to special projects and causes that are consistent with its priorities and are likely to have the greatest impact. No child should be left behind, and we back up our belief with real funding. Giving back to the community is simply the right thing to do. So in accordance with our mission, we will be offering scholarships to students who demonstrate a strong commitment to helping others within their community, with efforts focused around poverty and youth issues.
