The Community Foundation for Crawford County Joins Nationwide Celebration to Recognize the Local Impact of Community Foundations

Posted by Lisa Workman on Wed, Nov 13, 2024

November 12-18 is National Community Foundation Week, and The Community Foundation for Crawford County wants to use this time to raise awareness of their local impact and the importance of community foundations in general. Community Foundations hold endowment funds that provide a permanent source of income for nonprofit organizations, schools and other good causes. They also hold scholarship funds which seek to alleviate college debt, as well as increase our education attainment level. Finally, they are also a grantmaking public charity dedicated to improving the quality of lives for their community. Here locally, those grants have differed greatly in purpose and include everything from helping North Central State College Foundation establish the Crawford Success Center, giving to the American Red Cross to support local blood drives, and also granting to the Crawford Partnership to support economic, community and workforce development.
