1) How do I get involved?
Simply contact any Foundation Member....or call the Economic Development office at 620.357.8831 and we will provide you with more information and the date of the next meeting!
2) How can I make a Difference?
There are lots of ways to make a difference! By giving your charitable donations through the Foundation, you may have a tax deduction and we can help you specify your gift towards an area you or your loved ones are passionate about....or to the general account to be used as needs arise.
3) Is this a LOCAL Foundation? How can I make sure that my gift stays local and does the most good?
The Hodgeman Community Foundation is a local Foundation with a local Board. However, we have partnered with the Community Foundation of Southwest Kansas to be able to provide our donors with the best interest rates and legal services available. We are also proud members of the Kansas Association of Community Foundations.
