Make a local gift. Receive a match. Create greater impact.
The Palo Alto County Community Foundation wants to help you increase your impact on the community you love. Nonprofits in our community establish funds with the PACCF to create a long-term funding source that supports their mission and $30,000 in matching dollars are available. Now through the end of December, your gift of $250 or more will be matched up to $1,000 to any of the organizations listed below. Both year-end general fund gifts given directly to the nonprofit and gifts directed to Foundation funds (listed in parenthesis below) will be matched. All matching dollars will go to increase the impact of the fund of your chosen organization held with the Foundation. The Endow Iowa 25% State Tax Credit may also apply. Matching gift dollars were made possible by a grant from the Palo Alto County Gaming Development Corporation (PACGDC).
Make a gift by December 31st to create a greater, local impact!
