From an early age, Gilgan’s parents instilled in him the importance of giving back whether it be by volunteering time, supporting a charitable event or monetary donations to a worthy cause. With that in mind, the Peter Gilgan Foundation was created. The Peter Gilgan Foundation is a private family foundation that supports children and families, the environment, and international development. The Peter Gilgan Foundation has donated more than $260 million to improve the lives of children, youth and families. The Mattamy Athletic Centre at the old Maple Leaf Gardens, the Mattamy National Cycling Centre in Milton and the construction of the Rotary/Mattamy Greenway pathway in Calgary are just a few of the projects the Peter Gilgan Foundation has supported since its inception.
