What is the Builder Circle? 

The Builder Circle is a community of monthly and annual donors who power the core operations of the Rural Communities Foundation of Nova Scotia (RCFNS). These are the donors who invest in the heart of our work—staff time, convening, communications, and grant delivery—so we can continue making a difference in rural communities across the province. 

Why Operations Matter 

Grants don’t administer themselves. Change doesn’t happen without people. Behind every grant and every community gathering is: 

• A grant writer helping communities access funds 

• A coordinator supporting youth and food programs 

• A communicator sharing stories of impact 

• A team listening, convening, and building rural resilience 

Your support keeps this engine running. 

Application is now open for the Rural Communities Foundation of Nova Scotia's Board of Directors. Application closes Feb 28, 2025. https://rcfofns.com/join-our-board
