Summary
It is the Community Foundation's role to tend
to the spirit of Door County. Gratitude is a
natural human response to beauty. Out of
gratitude we give back. When you give back
through the Community Foundation, you also are
looking forward. The Community Foundation holds
Door County's future in strong hands. We
protect its future with caring and foresight.
By its very structure, the Community Foundation
makes sure that each individual gift continues
to give in a vital way, year after year into
the future. Grants go to human needs, the arts,
the environment, education and other charitable
causes. There is something in each of us that
wants to be immortal. People give to capital
fund drives for new buildings because they feel
these gifts will endure beyond them. But even
buildings and memorials have a life span that
is limited. The Community Foundation's life is
unlimited. The grants it makes are alive,
touching and sustaining the people,
organizations, land and water of Door County.
