About us
The City of Logan Charitable Trust (the Trust) is a public ancillary fund established in 2017 to provide funding for grassroots community projects delivered by Logan charities.

Our vision inspires community collaboration and guides our focus in uplifting community connectedness and resilience in Logan. Our mission shapes our commitment to uplift Logan’s youth and families, underscored by our corporate values and human spirit.
