THE BOSTOCK AND FALLIS FAMILIES OF MONTE CREEK HERITAGE FUND

BURSARY PROGRAM

The Bostock and Fallis families have ranched in the Monte Creek are of BC since 1888. During that time
they have been instrumental in the development and activities within the Interior of BC from politics,
newspapers, charitable organizations, cattle organizations and the 4-H movement. To give back to the
community, a Fund was established through the BC Interior Community Foundation to award two annual
bursaries as well as provide donations to various charities within the area serviced by the BC Interior
Community Foundation.
