   Creemore Community Foundation. These three words
have been tossed around a lot lately as our community
grapples with the future of the TD Bank lands. But I
think it may be time to take a deep breath and consider
what those words actually mean. What is a community
foundation? And how will this one benefit Creemore
now and in the future?
   Last year when Stuart Lazier and I learned that the
TD Bank was willing to donate their Creemore property
to the village, we decided to create the CCF in order to
make the most of this generous offer. In doing so we
immediately realized that although right now the TD land
development is the central focus of the CCF, its mandate
could be much broader and could be used to fund future
projects for the ongoing benefit of the village.
   A foundation is simply a charitable trust set up to
receive and hold donations or gifts such as the TD
lands. In turn, it can make grants or donations to other
organizations or individuals. Crucially, a foundation has
the ability to issue tax receipts to individuals making their
donations to the Foundation tax deductible.

ones in major cities. These foundations can also receive
bequests in the wills of people who want to make a
legacy gift to the community.
