You can make a gift to a specific fund or start your own. Whatever the case is, we are here to help you impact today and transform tomorrow!

We work with people like you to create a permanent fund and lasting legacy in your name. Is there a charity or cause that has impacted your life? What "mark" do you want to leave behind for future generations?

Your gift to the community foundation will grow over time, just like a tree! Whether you plant a seed by starting a new fund or help a fund grow by giving to an existing fund, every gift to the community foundation helps provide "fruit" for the community through grants and scholarships.
