The Julie Patel Foundation: A Legacy of Generosity and Growth
The Julie Patel Foundation (JPF) received its official registration and approval from the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) in late 2007. Since then, the Foundation has been the grateful recipient of generous donations from family members, friends, colleagues, and fellow charitable organizations.
Among our most steadfast supporters is the Sean and Sherry Bourne Foundation, whose commitment began with a $10,000 donation in 2018. Their contributions have grown steadily, culminating in annual donations of $20,000 over the past two years.
We are equally grateful to Laurie Bellamy and the Manucha family, who have contributed $5,000 annually since 2019. The Milan Vrckovnik Foundation also made a significant impact, donating $12,500 in both 2023 and 2024.
While we deeply appreciate the substantial support from these major donors, the ongoing success of JPF’s fundraising efforts is a testament to all of our donors. Each contribution—regardless of size—reflects a shared passion for meaningful causes and a remarkable spirit of loyalty. It is through this collective generosity that JPF has been able to increase its fundraising capacity year after year.
