Lennox & Addington's LENNOX & ADDINGTON’S CONNECTING COMMUNITIES 2019 ABOUT THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION FOR LENNOX & ADDINGTON Our Vision: A financially strong, connected, vigorously active, widely recognized and highly respected charitable foundation capable of major contributions toward strengthening and growing prosperity and fulfillment in our people and living areas in all parts of Lennox and Addington...in perpetuity. Established in 1987, the Community Foundation for Lennox & Addington manages charitable gifts from donors. Those gifts are pooled into permanent, income-earning endowment funds. The income from our endowment funds is distributed annually in the form of grants for charitable and educational purposes. Since our inception in 1987, The Community Foundation for Lennox & Addington has provided grants and bursaries in excess of one million dollars for the benefit of communities throughout the region of Lennox and Addington. WHAT IS VITAL SIGNS? Community Foundations across Canada produce Vital Signs check-ups in order to identify trends and to measure well-being factors in their regions. Vital Signs projects identify ideas, uncover needs, and promote collaborations that motivate communities to act. For most of our 32-year existence, our Community Foundation has operated as the Napanee District Community Foundation. In 2015, we produced a Greater Napanee Vital Signs Report. Our 2015 report can be found at: https://www.communityfoundations.ca/vitalsigns/reports/ . Since 2015, we have grown to become the Community Foundation for Lennox & Addington. Working with community leaders, we are coming to understand our region, and our communities, better than ever. In this Vital Signs project, we examine quality of life factors through the lens of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, (SDGs). Our intention is to publish Vital Signs reports for Lennox and Addington, every two years. Each time we publish, our aim is to identify and incorporate additional community voices and to demonstrate that together we can improve upon our smart, caring and sustainable communities. We welcome your feedback and support.

Through this agenda, seventeen interdependent goals have been identified and each goal has been assigned specific targets and indicators to be achieved by 2030. The Sustainable Development Goals represent a framework to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. This initiative has been described as an opportunity to eliminate poverty, save the planet and ensure a sustainable and prosperous future for all. These goals allow individuals to think at the global, national and local levels plus to act at the global, national and local levels. ‘Lennox & Addington’s Vital Signs Connecting Communities 2019’ has elicited community insights on 12 of the 17 SDGs and will touch upon all 17 SDGs. It is through the lens of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals our Vital Signs project aims to identify and promote actions that will ensure a prosperous and sustainable future for all residents of Lennox and Addington County. https://sustainabledevelopment.un.org Lennox & Addington’s Vital Signs Connecting Communities 2019 5 METHODOLOGY Seven Months of Research We conduct a deep statistical analysis of our region. We select data that is accurate, meaningful, clear and unbiased. Where possible, we collect data that is comparable over time. Our aim is to spot opportunities for community improvements.
