Fort La Reine Museum has partnered with the Community Foundation of Portage and District to establish this permanently endowed Manitoba Heritage Trust Fund to support their work.
The Manitoba government established the Manitoba Heritage Trust Endowment (MHTE) Fund to stretch gifts to Heritage Trust Funds. Each gift has the potential to be stretched by up to 50 per cent.
The Winnipeg Foundation will generate the tax receipts for all gifts
directed to this fund under the Manitoba Heritage Trust Program. Gifts to this
fund are invested in perpetuity and the annual income generated for grantmaking
is distributed to the Fort La Reine Museum to be used at their
discretion.
