The Community Foundation of Portage and District (CFPD) held an open house this afternoon to welcome the community to its new space at 206 Saskatchewan Avenue East, beside Mayfair Print Shoppe.

Newly appointed Executive Director Mandy Dubois was introduced at the open house and says it's a great opportunity to meet with people who want to know more about them.

"There are people who know about the Community Foundation, but I think there's a lot of people in Portage that might've been unaware of the Community Foundation, or at least where we were located before. So, now we have a lot more space and room for people to come in. We're excited about the new space," says Dubois.

She notes CFPD is always open Monday to Thursday from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. for anyone who is interested in learning more about donations or the grant application process.
