Alliance Museum Society receives grant funding

Battle River Community Foundation Director Neil Lunty presents the cheque to Muriel Fankhanel, Chairman of the Museum Society.

The Battle River Community Foundation recently awarded a grant to the Alliance and District Museum Society.

The grant is from income from the Norman Johnston Memorial Fund. The Fund was established by a bequest from the Estate of Norman Johnston, designated to support the operation of the Alliance Museum.

Since the Fund was started in 2010, the Museum has received more than $5,100.

The Battle River Community Foundation exists to support organizations such as this in East Central Alberta, which benefit the local communities and have a positive impact on the future.

Grants from the Battle River Community Foundation are primarily made possible through the generosity of individual donors and organizations that have created endowment funds. The principal of these endowment funds are kept intact and the income is made available annually to support local projects and organizations.
