OUR STORY

The Trinity Legacy Foundation was founded in 2006 by members of Trinity Church in Kelowna, BC.

A group of people passionate about Christian ministry felt called to be generous and pursue impact both locally and globally. Over the years many projects have been financially supported with focuses on education, health care, spiritual growth, and providing basic necessities to people in need.

One project in particular, Helen’s Acres, has been at the forefront of local benevolence. A real passion project that has welcomed volunteers and supporters of all kinds, Helen’s Acres Community Farm has been a catalyst of community momentum to combat food insecurity.

Beyond the farm, the Trinity Legacy Foundation is involved in local and global missions including supporting pathways out of poverty through education, missionaries, and spiritual care programs.
