Annual Funds

 

 

Contributions to these funds help continue the permanent work of the Community Foundation.

 

The annual fund clubs of the Greater Menomonie Area Community Foundation will be:

 

Builders Fund for gifts of $1,000 and above

Benefactors Fund for gifts between $500 and $999

Friends Fund for gifts up to $499

 

The dollars received from such annual funds will be used for operating expenses unless designated by the donor for the General Endowment.

 

Donors contributing to other Foundation accounts will be listed under those named funds in the annual report.

 

The donor(s) will be listed only in the year the donation is given. We will not have a cumulative club.

 

Matching gifts will not count toward an individual’s membership in the club. The company giving the donation will be recognized.

 

We will not have an annual campaign. The founders of the Community Foundation guaranteed the community that we would not hold such a campaign. We would hold an internal low-key campaign with our own Board and we would “advertise” the Clubs through our column, newsletter, response envelope, and annual report but we would not do specific mailings, etc.

 

Donors/sponsors of the Travel Dinner and Golf Outing will be listed as members of an appropriate annual club.

 

Approved by the Board of Directors, July 24, 2001
