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.
