Becoming a fund holder allows you to make a gift to the McPherson County Community Foundation, then outline your charitable goals for the future of that gift.
The McPherson County Community Foundation has a COVID 19 Response Fund to help schools and organizations provide resources and funds to our county residents. These Funds are intended to complement the work of our local entities and expand our capacity to address all aspects of the outbreak as efficiently as possible. The COVID-19 response funds will provide support to organizations that are assisting the most disproportionately impacted individuals and families.
