Support our mission

Established in 1993 a separate but affiliated nonprofit corporation, the Big Lakes Foundation, was established to solicit, encourage and facilitate the contribution of funds for fulfilling Big Lakes' mission. The foundation provides ongoing financial support for Big Lakes' operations and special projects such as client parties staff appreciation events and leadership development, and affordable/accessible housing for the people we serve.
