Giving For The Long Term
One of C3F's greatest strengths is the power of endowment. By investing gifts for the long term, we grow today's generosity into lasting impact, helping us give back more to our community than we receive each year.
Community needs are constantly evolving. Our unrestricted Community Endowment gives us the flexibility to respond where support is needed most, addressing the greatest opportunities and challenges as they arise.
The need in our community is clear. This year, our Community Priorities grant cycle received more than $500,000 in requests, yet our Community Endowments had only $100,000 available to distribute. While $100,000 is a significant investment, it met only a fraction of the demonstrated need.
Continuing to grow our Community Endowment is the path forward. It expands our ability to meet local needs, seizes opportunities, and makes a lasting difference close to home.
Your annual gift makes that possible.
For an even bigger impact, plan an annual gift of $1,000 for five years and grow your own named Fund for the Community. Call us today to find out how.
