Sharon L. Henderson Fund

Sharon L. Henderson Fund

This endowment fund was created in memory of Sharon Lynne Henderson in recognition of her life-long love of, and advocacy for, Canadian literature. Sharon lived in Calgary all of her adult life and was a valued member of the literary community, including actively participating in the Doris Govier Canadian Literature Group.

Donations to this fund will be used to support the participation of a young or emerging writer in our annual mentorship program. The goal of this fund is to support, in perpetuity, the creative and professional development of young or emerging Alberta writers, a very important component in nurturing the future of Canadian literature.

We are grateful for donors’ support to ensure the longevity of this endowment fund. Your generosity makes a valuable difference in furthering the recognition and promotion of Alberta’s literary talent.

Our endowment funds support emerging and priority needs in the greater Edmonton community, now and for generations to come. Donate to a fund
