The Temiskaming Foundation is a community foundation serving the Timiskaming District in Ontario. It funds charities, non-profits, municipalities, schools and other local organizations through multiple grant programs, scholarships and donor-advised funds. View Tri-Town Foundation (TTF)'s website for more information.




The Temiskaming Foundation operates as a local community foundation that pools charitable donations into endowment and restricted funds, then redistributes investment income and granted capital back into the District of Timiskaming. Its portfolio supports a wide range of community priorities, including social services, arts and culture, education, medical services, physical fitness, amateur sports, food security and homelessness prevention.
The foundation administers multiple grant streams and fund types. Public-facing grant programs include community funds for local projects, youth-focused grants, heritage and cultural funding, school nutrition support, and homelessness prevention funding. The annual report also shows donor-advised and restricted funds, which provide recurring grants to named charities, schools, museums, libraries, food banks and other local organizations.
The foundation publishes annual reports and other publications that summarize grants awarded, recipients, fund activity and community impact. The 2025 report highlights $672,000 in grants made and 98 community organizations, municipalities and schools supported, showing an established funding role rather than a purely philanthropic or fundraising presence.
Across the Timiskaming District, the foundation appears to act as a local funding intermediary that helps residents, donors and organizations direct money to community priorities. Its model combines endowment stewardship, community granting and donor-directed philanthropy to sustain local charities and projects over time.
