We are in the midst of our CRCC Fundraising Campaign, “Secure the Future”, to build a sound and stable financial future for CRCC. It includes:
- Further phases of development such as a shrine for Our Blessed Mother and a Residence Building for those working at the Centre
- Hospitality training and mentoring for trainees
- Reducing the building debt
- Expanding and promoting youth programs
Our current goal of $3M will allow us to carry out our mission of positively transforming society by facilitating personal growth and spiritual development, creating new perspectives in living daily life and developing leaders capable of inspiring and serving others.
“Make Room at the Ridge”
In the “Secure the Future” fundraising campaign, there are several different initiatives to raise the money needed to pay down the CRCC mortgage. “Make Room at the Ridge” is one in which we are seeking dedicated gifts for the 27 ensuite bedrooms at CRCC. The donation can be made in honour of someone (like a grandchild) or in memory of someone (such as parents or a spouse). In March, for example, a couple selected “Mount Sedgewick” in memory of their parents who they characterized as their “fountains of love.” Dedications will be recorded in a “Donor Recognition Edition” of our CRCC photo book which is kept in the front room of the centre.
Help us Honour Opus Dei’s Centenary
From 2028 to 2030, Opus Dei will celebrate the Centenary of its foundation. As part of our celebration in British Columbia, we are dedicating an ensuite at Copper Ridge Conference Centre (CRCC), with the inscription “In thanksgiving for the first 100 years of Opus Dei and in joyful anticipation of the next 100 years.” We invite you to join us in raising funds for this ensuite, Mt. Meager.
