Cana Foundation is a 501(c)(3), non-profit, started by Jim and Lori Fancher in 2021. Our vision for Cana Foundation, Inc. is to be a conduit for first miracles in people's lives, work, and community. We do this by connecting people with service opportunities thereby extending the "work place" beyond the corporate one. 

We are also co-owners of the Hot Springs Lodge in Costa Rica. The lodge can be utilized to house mission teams, conduct corporate retreats, or connect leaders with community service leadership development opportunities.

OUR MISSION

 

Cana Foundation was started April 1, 2021 by Jim and Lori Fancher in response to a calling to create a work “place” beyond the corporate one, where people can experience the miracles of Christ in their work and in their lives by sharing their gifts and talents. We do this by extending the reach and/or the venue from "office" to community for what will be service opportunities in support of those who otherwise not be have access to us.
