WELLth Movement gives back to communities through wellth giving: philanthropy and volunteerism.

In January 2004, the WELLth Learning Network* created the Minstrel Ways Fund, a permanent endowment fund at The Calgary Foundation. The Fund supports experience-based educating adventures connecting children/youth & trees living in Calgary and area, and eventually around the world.

*WELLth Movement is the reinvention of WELLth Learning Network (January 2016).


Possibility Exists in Every Handshake,
Especially Through Wellth Giving - Financial and Volunteerism

About working with The Calgary Foundation via the donor directed fund Minstrel Ways Fund

The advisory board of the fund (from within the WELLth Movement) decides annually which charity/charities will receive support. Four percent of the Minstrel Ways' funds market value is available to be granted.
