Meaford Culture Foundation
For more information about volunteering with the Meaford Culture Foundation, please visit https://meafordculture.ca.
The Meaford Culture Foundation is an incorporated, not-for-profit volunteer organization with federally granted charitable status. The Foundation works with local groups to ensure that Meaford Hall is a viable, accessible and welcoming centre for the community as well as the premier location in Southern Georgian Bay for arts and culture.
Would you like to volunteer for the Meaford Culture Foundation and make a difference at one of our upcoming events such as MIFF, or our online auction?
Are you interested in getting involved at the Board level?
Meaford is a community of volunteers, and events like MIFF wouldn’t exist without them. You see some of them taking tickets and ushering in the theatre, you see others in the party tent serving drinks and the complimentary food, but there’s so much more. From putting up and decorating the big party tent to raising awareness of the festival, volunteers are the backbone of MIFF and we are so grateful to them.

Meaford Rotary
When the Rotary Club of Meaford received its charter in 1937, having been sponsored by the Owen Sound club, there were 20 founding members.
Over the years since that time the Meaford club has been involved in a wide variety of worthy causes. Some of these include financial support for the arena and artificial ice installation, support to the Food Bank, funds for the expanding Meaford hospital, assistance to the Meaford Curling club, taking a lead role for the purchase and operation of a handi-van and support for the building of a skateboard park. Annually the Club provides continuing support to our schools through scholarships and bursaries plus direct support to school programs. Our community also has a new entrance to our harbour leading to the Rotary Pavilion both items built and funded by Rotarians.
