WALL-BAIN CHARLOTTE COUNTY MUSEUM FUND (2004)

As the first curator of her local museum and long-time Chair of its Board of Directors, Marian Bain was well acquainted with the challenges facing non-profit organizations. She knew that just paying the phone bill every month could be an uphill battle. That’s why Marian chose to establish her own charitable fund. The Wall-Bain Charlotte County Museum Fund allowed Marian to direct her fund to her favourite charity. Now, earnings from Marian’s legacy will provide funding for the museum to assist in covering its operational expenses.
