Philanthropy is about giving of yourself, whether it is with money or your time. All you have to do is care about something an organization, a cause or a mission and give something of yourself to support that which has touched your heart.
It is an understanding of the existence of things that somehow transcends personal interests that prompts the true spirit of charity. Out of this understanding, we make conscious decisions about much more than obligatory giving. It is somewhere in the midst of this process in the decision to share a life, to be part of a charitable work that every one of us has experienced the truth that is the cornerstone of philanthropy…that it is, indeed, in giving that we experience the greatest gifts.
As summer winds down, take a moment to reflect on the people touched by your acts of charitable trust. Every dollar given can be connected to a child, a parent, a grandparent, a friend, or a neighbor having benefited from your contribution to the Foundation for Community Care.
To ensure we would always have quality healthcare, the founders of the Foundation for Community Care established a community savings account, called an endowment fund. Some of the earnings from the endowment fund are awarded each year to fund area healthcare needs. 100% of every donation made to the Foundation for Community Care stays in our community. In May, $232,950.95 dollars was given back to our community. These resources touched thousands of residents in the MonDak area.
The Foundation for Community Care offers those who care about our community a way to make a difference right here at home by making tax-deductible contribution. For more information on how you can leave a legacy in our community, stop by our office at 221 2nd Street NW, Sidney or send us an email at [email protected]. We will provide you with a confidential, personalized illustration that will ensure that you get all the tax benefits that our laws provide. You should always consult your own financial professionals and advisors.
