The Allen & Loreen Van de Kerkhove Family Foundation appears to be a small, locally focused Canadian family foundation funding a mix of basic-needs, health, education, and community safety charities in the Victoria/Vancouver Island region. Its grants suggest a strong interest in supporting vulnerable populations and practical community services, including food security, parish-based outreach, prostate and brain injury support, therapeutic riding, and search-and-rescue/emergency response. It also appears to favor nearby, highly community-embedded organizations and a few Catholic-affiliated institutions.
