BCU Foundation: Who We Are
BCU Foundation was established when Canada’s largest Ukrainian-Canadian credit union, Buduchnist Credit Union (BCU), undertook the creation of a member-supported charitable institution. Officially launched in 2006, BCU Foundation acts as a permanent means of delivering substantial assistance to noteworthy community-based cultural and educational endeavors in Canada.

Our Mission
BCU Foundation is a growing and dynamic institution, organically linked to the current and future needs of our community. BCU Foundation is committed to funding projects and activities that:
- promote the rich Ukrainian cultural identity in Canada
- foster leadership in the community
- enhance the development of community organizations
- depict the historical context of the Ukrainian-Canadian experience
How We Provide Community Support
Designated Funds are donated by individual Canadians, corporations, or by Buduchnist Credit Union (BCU), on behalf of its membership as a whole. These monies are earmarked for a specific purpose, cause, organization, or area of interest designated by the fund’s founder or donor.
General Funds, received from broad-based donations or fundraising events, support a wide spectrum of community initiatives which fall within the Foundation’s general mandate.
Our Track Record
Since its inception, BCU Foundation has provided funding for a number of important endeavours
in Canada. We support a wide array of worthy undertakings, including scholarly
research, historical exhibits, documentary films, publications,
genocide-awareness projects, musical recordings, humanitarian programs, cultural
festivals, youth organizations, and countless other community-based initiatives.
