We’re having a
celebration and you are invited! In fact, you can be a part of it.
As part of our 20th
Anniversary, the Community Foundation is partnering with the AmeriServ Flood
City Music Festival on Friday evening, August 6, to hold the Community
Foundation Community Celebration. For the first 1,000 people to enter the
Festival, in exchange for your $5 ticket to get into the Festival, you will
receive a “Community Foundation Stock Certificate”. You can then take the
certificate to the Community Mall sponsored by the Community Foundation and
invest your $5 certificate at any of the funds represented there. Get there
early, because after the 1,000 stock certificates are gone, no more will be
available. Once you are there, stay and learn about the Foundation and our
funds and have some fun while you are at it! Be a part of the celebration.
The Community Mall will be near the Bud Light Stage. We have invited our donor
supported funds to set up tables that display information about their projects
and programs. That is where you can invest your stock certificate in the fund
of your choice. You can also donate directly to the fund of your choice.
Below is a list of all the
nonprofits that so far have signed up and more will be coming. Be sure to come
to support the ones you care about, to join the party, and to learn more about
some of the great things going on in our community.
