COMMUNITY INITIATIVES FUND t ANNUAL REPORT 2012-13 1 Message from the Letter of Transmittal Chair and Executive Director

The Honourable Kevin Doherty Dear Partners and Community Leaders, Minister of Parks, Culture and Sport, and With considerable pride, we report once again that the Community Initiatives Fund (CIF) has continued to successfully invest in communities, with 932 grants approved Minister Responsible for the Community Initiatives Fund resulting in a total investment of $10,611,646 for the 2012-13 year. This year also marks a significant milestone for CIF, as we have now invested a cumulative total of over $100 Million in Saskatchewan’s communities since our first year of granting in 1996-97. Our ability to provide grants for the benefit of Saskatchewan residents is reliant upon the annual net revenues generated Dear Hon. Doherty: by the Regina and casinos, with CIF’s portion in 2012-13 equaling $9,751,000.

In accordance with The Tabling of Documents Act, and on behalf of the Board of Trustees of To better support Saskatchewan communities, CIF completed the second phase of its program the Community Initiatives Fund, it is my pleasure to present to you the Annual Report of the Darlene Bessey review this year. This review resulted in program extensions, amalgamation and alignment of CIF’s suite of programs that will take effect April 2013. In addition, recognition of the CIF Community Initiatives Fund for the period April 1, 2012 to March 31, 2013, inclusive. broadened during 2012-13 as the CIF responded to various priorities of many communities throughout the province.

Respectfully submitted, The highly popular Community Vitality Program has been extended for one additional year, providing two more application deadlines in 2013. Since Program inception in 2010, the CIF has approved $10,209,873 with 647 grants through the Community Vitality Program and benefitting 312 Saskatchewan communities. Branding and communication efforts continued with website promotion, attendance at trade shows and sector information-sharing workshops throughout the year. This has enhanced the CIF’s presence and created a growing appreciation of the CIF among Saskatchewan communities. Darlene Bessey Over 1200 residents now receive the CIF’s electronic newsletter featuring community projects and Tracey Mann Chairperson web resources for nonprofits and charities. Board of Trustees In addition to providing project funding, the CIF is committed to supporting Saskatchewan’s nonprofit, charitable and community groups through facilitation of information-sharing venues, Community Initiatives Fund dissemination of tools and resources, and provision of opportunities for collaboration among these organizations. During 2012-13, the CIF provided significant support, both financial and in-kind, to explore the concept and feasibility of an independent Saskatchewan nonprofit network. Led by a provincial steering committee, and in partnership with the United Ways of and Regina, this initiative undertook a number of steps to determine the level of support, potential outcomes, and organizational models for a provincial network. This effort culminated with presentation of the findings and determination of next steps at a Provincial Summit in November that involved 150 sector leaders and resulted in agreement to further develop this network. The CIF will continue to support the second phase of this initiative throughout 2013-14 that will include further consultation to clearly identify objectives and a business model for a provincial entity. We acknowledge our grant review partners, the Regional Intersectoral Committees and coordinators, the Saskatchewan Parks and Recreation Association, the Saskatchewan Ministry of Health, and Urban Aboriginal Committees in 14 municipalities throughout the province, and thank all for their engagement and dedication. The CIF also recognizes volunteer adjudication committee members for their continued involvement with the Community Vitality Program. This appreciation extends wholeheartedly to the Ministry of Parks, Culture and Sport and the Government of Saskatchewan for its continued support of the CIF. The CIF works proudly with the Ministry and with the many innovative and dedicated community leaders throughout Saskatchewan. It is anticipated 2013-14 will be another great year.

Price risk: Price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. The Fund does not invest in any equity instruments and only purchases government guaranteed fixed income instruments or those issued by a major Canadian bank so the price risk is low.
