Let’s Chat This time of year is filled with generous giving and appreciation for the gifts we receive. At The Community Foundation, we are grateful for those who have entrusted us with funds for the community, today, tomorrow, and always. In this issue of Legacy, we celebrate giving. We introduce a gift from one local couple that provides a match to raise endowed funds for a favorite organization. You’ll also read about a special match just in time for year-end – an opportunity to TRIPLE all gifts to The Unrestricted Fund or any named unrestricted fund. You’ll learn more about the impact of unrestricted funds and celebrate Unrestricted Champions. We also invite you to consider a special opportunity to start your own named unrestricted fund to have an everlasting impact on the community. Are you interested in learning more about giving this year? It’s not too late. Give us a call. We are ready to talk with you! Marcy Minton President & CEO
