The Greater Geary Community Foundation serves the Junction City – Geary County community.
Board member Vic Davis explained people can make a donation to the Foundation. “If they don’t know where exactly where they want their money to go , or they would like to have it go to an umbrella organization because the needs of the community change over time. ”
Davis added this last year there was a big school effort, and next year it might be something else. “So this is a great opportunity for individuals to donate to a community-wide foundation that will take care of that money and will use that money for the overall good of the community.”
Board President Calvin Pottberg noted any legitimate tax exempt 501C3 organization can start a fund with the Foundation. It’s an avenue for the Foundation to collect funds from people and give a menu of the funds that are in it.
