About Us

The Thetis Island Community Fund originated from the Community Forum in Summer of 2003, where it was decided that a stand alone umbrella charitable society, separate from the Thetis Island Community Association (TICA), was desirable for Thetis Island. The Community Fund was incorporated in December 2005 and granted charitable tax status in Fall of 2006. Transfer of the money from TICA's Health & Education Fund to the Community Fund took place in early 2007 to contribute to meeting broader community needs.

The Community Fund is managed by a seven-member volunteer Board and governed according to a Constitution and Bylaws that set out the purpose, Board composition and general proceedings.
