CONSERVATION OF ARTIFACTS.
A revised application for funding by the Ontario Trillium Foundation was rejected for the second time in January 2012. We are now working on a collaboration with the University of Windsor (Centre for Smart Community Innovation), Culture Windsor-Essex and other local military museums to prepare a joint submission to OTF later in 2012. The Association is accepting artifacts from any family collection that you want included in this digitization project.

The Scottish Borderers Foundation
purpose
The Scottish Borderers Foundation was incorporated by Letters Patent on 19 April 1999 from the Regimental Trustees agreement and given charitable status on 19 April 1999.
The original Trustees agreement dated 2 January 1929 and six later agreements directed that trustees are appointed for the purpose of administering invested assets which are designated for the use and benefit of the Regiment.
The Foundation was established to:
- support and maintain all Scottish regiments of infantry in Essex and Kent counties;
- acquire, appraise, catalogue, restore and preserve artifacts and memorabilia that are historically significant to the Regiment;
- maintain records, documents and books relating to the history of infantry regiments in Essex and Kent counties.
The Foundation annually distributes a portion of the interest of monies earned from investments to the Regiment based on a request from the Commanding Officer. The Directors establish an Investment Committee that manages the investments for the Foundation. They provide an annual report, and seek advice and approval for investment plans from the Directors.
