Anniversary Circle Fund 

A New Opportunity to Make a "Forever" Impact

In honor of our 25^th year, the Centre County Community Foundation established the Anniversary Circle Fund, a growing pool of assets that will make grants back to our community much like other funds in the Foundation, but with a twist:  Those who become Anniversary Circle members meet annually to decide which local not-for-profit organizations and programs will receive the Anniversary Circle Fund Grants.

The Goal

We ask you to consider membership in the Anniversary Circle of the Centre County Community Foundation.  Our goal is to have 500 individuals, groups or businesses make a contribution of $3,000 to this new Fund, which will provide a ten-year membership. When we have met our goal we will have a $1.5 million pool of assets and will be able to give $75,000 or more in grants back to Centre County each year.  Imagine the good we can do! 

Membership is Unique

Only members can make proposals as to what unmet needs will be considered for funding; and only members of the Circle can vote on who receives the grants each year.  Circle members will be invited to a luncheon to be held each year where the grant decisions will be made. Anniversary Circle grants may be made to not-for-profit organizations serving Centre County working in the following fields: health and human services, the arts, education and for environmental improvement. 

Our Invitation

There are always challenges in our local not-for-profit community, and many unmet needs. The Anniversary Circle Fund will help fill these gaps and will let more people become involved in the grant-making process.  We invite you to join us in this excellent endeavor. Click here to download the Anniversary Circle Enrollment form.
