Why Participate?
By contributing to this campaign, you’ll help us secure vital funding that will be matched dollar-for-dollar. This means that if the Community Foundation raises $600,000, we’ll have $1.2 million to enhance our impact. Similarly, the Women’s Fund aims to raise $500,000, which will double to $1 million.
How to Get Involved
Make your gift online. If you’re 70 ½ or older, you can use your IRA to maximize your contribution. All gifts including Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCD) or Required Minimum Distributions (RMD) will be matched through December 31, 2025.
Your Support in Action
Your donation will advance our five Vision Plan pillars: Connected Community, Inspiring Places, Everyone’s Economy, Lifelong Learning, and Healthy Mind and Body. Additionally, it will support the
Women’s Fund’s three strategic focus areas: Economic Security, Personal Safety, and Young Women and Girls. This campaign is crucial for driving initiatives that create a thriving, equitable Allen County.
