You’ve Invested! Let’s keep it going.
25 years ago, a group of dedicated community members came together with a simple but powerful idea: that local generosity, wisely invested, could build a stronger future for our community. That idea became the Osprey Community Foundation. Since 2000, we have been connecting people who want to give with causes that matter, right here in our community. Osprey continues to grow endowment funds that support local charities and initiatives year after year.
100 Years of Combined Community Building
The year 2025, marks significant milestones for both Osprey (25 years) and our long standing community partner, the Nelson & District Credit Union (75 years). To celebrate, NDCU and Osprey have pooled resources to create a fund matching opportunity.

Since 1950, Nelson & District Credit Union has been Enriching lives locally. And since 2000, the Osprey Community Foundation has been connecting people who want to give to causes that matter, right here in our community.
