Kathy Hawkesworth Community Fund

After more than two decades at Edmonton Community Foundation (ECF), Kathy Hawkesworth is getting ready for the next chapter in her life’s story: retirement.

Kathy has worn many different hats at ECF, including Director of Donor Services, in-house counsel and Philanthropy Advisor. In every role, her focus remained the same —  helping Edmontonians invest in their community for the long term.

“Every donor is different … but there is a consistency in that these are people who want to make a difference. Getting to understand how they want to do that is a very privileged thing to do,” she says.

In honour of Kathy’s exceptional service to ECF and our community, we’re pleased to announce the Kathy Hawkesworth Community Fund. ECF will match community contributions up to $15,000. The fund will support community needs and emerging priorities in this community that Kathy not only loves but has worked so hard to build over the last two decades.
