Waterloo Regional Heritage Foundation 50th Anniversary

The Region of Waterloo would like to recognize and celebrate the Waterloo Regional Heritage Foundation for its dedication to the community for the past 50 years. In 1974, the Waterloo Regional Heritage Foundation was incorporated as a non-profit organization to consult, advise, and offer moral support on a wide number of heritage issues throughout the Region. The Foundation was not only the first heritage organization set up and funded by a regional government, but it set a precedent in Canada as the first heritage organization that was allocated a substantial amount of public money by any level of government.

And as the Foundation celebrates this major milestone of past achievements, it’s a great opportunity to look at the Foundation’s future as it launches a more equitable, diverse, and inclusive approach to promote and encourage interest in the heritage and culture of Waterloo Region.
