The Heartland Community Foundation is growing – just in time for Match Month!
To better serve donors, grantees, and community supporters, HCF is excited to announce the
opening of two new local offices in Trego and Rooks counties.

The Heartland Community Foundation is kicking off its 9th annual Match Month in
February -- a chance for Ellis, Rooks, and Trego counties to invest in their communities and
build a lasting source of local funding. More than just a fundraiser, Match Month strengthens
the region by ensuring nonprofits, schools, and community projects have the resources they
need for years to come.

Heartland Community Foundation, in partnership with The Dane G. Hansen Foundation, is excited to announce a new fund-matching initiative, beginning now. This program is designed to help donors establish and grow endowed funds that will provide lasting support for the causes and organizations they care about most.

The Heartland Community Foundation, dedicated to enriching the lives of individuals and communities in Ellis, Rooks, and Trego counties, is pleased to announce the appointment of Justine Benoit to its Advisory Board.

The Heartland Community Foundation recently awarded $141,627.51 to local organizations in Ellis, Rooks, and Trego County during our fall/winter grant cycle. In total, the community foundation helped fund 39 projects -- including 14 that were fully funded, 22 that were partially funded, and three that were awarded as surprise grants.
