Leadership
The Metcalf Foundation supports people working in the nonprofit sector over the arc of their careers to ensure their effectiveness and, through them, the health of their organizations and communities.
Canada asks a great deal of its civil society. Not-for-profit groups play a crucial role in everything from addressing complex social issues to creating our culture and monitoring and sustaining our natural environment. The sector is filled with people of enormous ability and commitment who are achieving extraordinary things under very difficult circumstances.
The Metcalf Foundation want to support these people in their work. We want to ensure that they are able to draw more deeply on their gifts and that they have time to think, to learn, to collaborate, to innovate, and to renew themselves. We are committed to creating opportunities for new ideas, fresh perspectives, unlikely alliances, and unorthodox approaches to familiar planning.
We want to ensure that people entering the sector, filled with talent and idealism, are given thoughtful opportunities to work, contribute, and stay in the field. We want to provide support for emerging leaders and ensure that our organizations reflect more completely the communities they serve. We are also committed to sustaining the contributions made by the established leadership of the sector.
