With this project, the Community Foundation aims to raise $100,000, by finding 1,000 donors to give $100 or 100 donors to give $1000, for an endowment fund that makes annual grants to programs which support women and girls.
Each donor is given the opportunity to write a special message in honor or memory of a special woman in their life and that woman will then be sent a certificate notifying them of the gift.
Donations of any size are welcome. Women recognized with gifts of $100 or more will be sent a certificate to notify her of your gift and she will also be recognized on our website.
Thanks to the generosity of Jean Parker and Sue Loveall, $1,000 gifts will be matched by each up to $10,000. Therefore, your gift of $1,000 may actually contribute $3,000 to the Women’s fund.
Since May 30th, over $25,000 has been raised for this initiative. The initiative will end on July 30th. The addition of these donations into the fund will greatly impact the grants that will be given for years to come.
Added Benefits of Giving
Because the Women’s Fund is endowed, Endow Iowa legislation makes donors to the fund eligible for a 20% state tax credit in addition to the normal federal and state deductions for charitable giving.
