The Spirit of Giving

Match Day Ignites #Giving Tuesday

Posted by Liz Dolan on Wed, Oct 28, 2015


  • December 1 is MATCH DAY! Help us grow our agency endowment funds and give grants and scholarships to well deserving projects and students.

  • On December 1, 2015, we are asking a few of our key partners to rally their friends, family, and networks to support our work. By becoming a fundraiser for The Community Foundation for Crawford County, you will help our community and our future, and you'll help your friends feel good about doing good.

    Starting a fundraiser is easy to do, and it's fun. We'll even give you all the tools you'll need to make a difference. With your help we can create positive change and improve the quality of life for Crawford County residents.

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.
