Donate to A Fund

Join us in creating a lasting legacy. Name your charitable fund: we encourage you to honor the name of your family or loved ones. You may choose anonymity or add to an existing fund already in place for your charitable needs.

Your planned gift or bequest puts you in good company today. Tomorrow, your gift will do good works in our community for generations to come. Did you know that you can preserve a portion of your estate for your community?

Research indicates that $3.7 billion will transfer from one generation to the next in Dickinson and Iron counties (Michigan) in the next 50 years. $1.6 million would be generated annually for local community projects and priorities, FOREVER, if 5% of the above-referenced wealth transfer was earmarked for the Dickinson Area Community Foundation.

Your charitable contribution is tax deductible.
