MATCH DAY 2013 A SMASHING SUCCESS!

Posted by Janet Pry on Thu, Dec 12, 2013

We had a wonderfully successful Match Day this year!  A grand total of $47,272.20 was donated by the community for endowment funds held at the Community Foundation for Crawford County.  The CF4CC (fka BACF) has been hosting Match Day fund raising events since 2009. This is the first time in the history of the Foundation Match Days that the monetary goal was exceeded. The Foundation had challenged its organizations to raise funds towards their endowments and agreed to match up to $20,000. The citizens of Crawford County accepted that challenge and well exceeded the goal set by the CF4CC.

 The Community Foundation has a great deal for you! To help make your donation dollars count even more, the CF4CC (fka BACF) has pledged $20,000 in matching funds for the endowment funds held at the CF4CC. The Foundation will match on a 1:1 basis every donation, up to $20,000.  If the money raised exceeds $20,000, the money will be divided proportionally among the different agencies.
