Grantee Spotlight
Every year, we produce a video highlighting impactful programs that are supported by Co-operators Community Funds. Our most recent video features Stella’s Place Assessment and Treatment Centre. Based in Toronto, Stella’s Place offers free, comprehensive, integrated mental health services for young adults, aged 16-29. Their unique support model places an emphasis on peer co-design paired with evidence- informed best practices. Stella’s Place equips program participants with skills and training that help prepare them to work in the peer support field, rejoin the workforce and continue their journey of recovery.

Co-operators Community Funds Investment Portfolio
Approximately 60% of CCF’s investment portfolio assets are held in impact investments, transition investments, and smaller-scale community impact investments. We challenge the traditional view that investments are solely to make money. We advocate for the broader impact of a foundation’s investments, beyond just financial returns.
