Laketown Ranch Benevolent Society
Giving back to the community is part of who we are at Laketown Ranch, and will continue to be a measure of our success. It is so important in fact, that we have an incorporated benevolent society. Our legacy of community alliance spans over a decade, donating to over 50 charities, non-profits, schools, community partners and causes.
The purposes of the society are:
- To promote the performance, production, and appreciation of live music performances in the Cowichan Valley and on Vancouver Island; and
- To assist health, education, and arts related groups in the Cowichan Valley and Vancouver Island by providing monetary and in-kind donations.
Through the years, we have raised over $1,500,000, benefitting vital organizations in our community, including:
- The Cowichan District Hospital Foundation
- MS Society, Canadian Diabetes Association
- Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock
- Big Brothers Big Sisters
- Rotary Club of Duncan
- Radio Cowichan
- Cowichan Valley Performing Arts Foundation
- Music Heals
- Duncan Chamber of Commerce
- Roughly twenty elementary, middle and high schools in the area.
We also contribute to the economic, social, cultural and agricultural growth of the Cowichan Valley, having infused over 10 million dollars into local business through direct and indirect investment and employment opportunities since our inception.
This year, the Laketown Ranch Benevolent Society will be extending its scope to incorporate potential fundraising opportunities through event beverage gardens, raffles, and ticket fees at Laketown Ranch.
Together, we are positively shaping the community of the Cowichan Valley, and that’s something we can all stand behind.
If you are a non-profit organization seeking a donation, please send us an official request letter, on letterhead, with details of how your event or organization benefits the community. Thank you.
