"Thanks to Viewpoint Foundation, there is a vibrant and colorful mural that backdrops the Adam Van Wielingen Stage on the busiest floor at the Calgary Drop-In Centre.

For the DI, this space represents tranquility, hope and courage, and when music plays on the Adam Van Wielingen Stage, you can feel the energy shift in the room. It’s as though there is a communal refocusing; a nostalgic wave is brought on by a song, a familiar groove fills the airwaves, and for a moment, there’s a reprieve from life’s struggles."

"Viewpoint’s investment and engagement through Momentum have made a mark on our city.

Viewpoint stepped up as one of the first private funders of the Start Smart RESP program. Over the years, their investments have helped open over 3,000 RESPs for kids in our city. Calgary now has the second highest uptake rate of RRSPs among low income families in the country. Through the Job Boost microloan pilot program, Viewpoint funding has helped provide 59 loans to people seeking to overcome financial barriers to better employment. We have been able to test, tweak, and learn from this new microloan program thanks to funders like Viewpoint. And finally, when demand spiked for us during the recession, Viewpoint invested to help respond to the growing interest in our economic empowerment programming. The Viewpoint Foundation is thoughtful and strategic about investing in game-changing initiatives help make our city great for everyone."

"Viewpoint has been a long time, dedicated champion of Boys & Girls Clubs of Calgary.

With their continued support of our annual Splash of Red gala, Viewpoint Foundation has helped us serve Calgary’s most vulnerable youth along their journey to end their experience with homelessness. With their passion for leadership development, Viewpoint Foundation has helped Boys & Girls Clubs of Calgary implement programming which focuses on children and youth and their development as young leaders."

"Viewpoint Foundation and the Van Wielingen family have been long-time supporters of United Way of Calgary and Area.

One of the things that makes their investments special is a vision to innovate new solutions. They were early investors in All In For Youth (AIFY) and were lead donors with the Financial Stability Initiative that evolved into Financial Empowerment. AIFY continues to build on successes year after year and continues to have a transformative impact on Calgary youth graduating from high school and going on to build good lives. Viewpoint’s focus on leadership and innovation, and their commitment to the Calgary community has benefited many throughout our city and we are grateful to continue to work with them in creating lasting social change."

"Viewpoint Foundation's lead investment and continued commitment to the Canadian Centre for Advanced Leadership in Business has made a profound impact on the students of the Haskayne School of Business, and on our faculty, staff and community. Through the Viewpoint gift, we have been able to recruit Canada’s most promising leadership professors, advance research in leadership and grow our connections with the community through meaningful mentorships, case competitions and events. We are transforming the student experience, infusing out-of-the-box leadership development opportunities into every student’s journey to impart critical leadership skills with each student. Simply put, Viewpoint Foundation’s philanthropic leadership inspires us to be better and do better.”

"I want to give a HUGE thank you for the Viewpoint Foundation's support of the program.  Because of my participation in AE West, I am more confident and equipped than ever before. The information and experiences provided in the program are having an amazing impact on my music career trajectory for 2019....The journey of growing as a creator and professional is a tumultuous and rewarding one. Even though I work as a "solo" artist, I recognize that my story and my successes depend on thousands of people who have touched my life. Thanks so much for being part of my story."
