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 sponsors for the 27 ensuite bedrooms at CRCC. The sponsorship 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 sponsored “Mount Sedgewick” in memory of their parents who they characterized as their “fountains of love.” Mother’s and Father’s Day are approaching, so you may want to consider sponsoring a room for your parents. 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 Msgr. Frederick Dolan
Msgr. Frederick Dolan, affectionately known as “Fr. Fred,” was the Vicar of Opus Dei in Canada when plans for Copper Ridge Conference Centre began. He dedicated countless hours to making this project a reality and traveled to Vancouver many times to support its development. In appreciation of his unwavering support, we invite you to join us in raising funds to sponsor the “Cloudburst Mountain” and “Serratus Mountain” rooms at CRCC in his honour.
