We like mail!


The Foundation does like mail. Better said, we like hearing from our Donors, Community, and Nonprofits. Our Board and Staff find your input very helpful. 

Is there a topic related to the Community Foundation that you have been curious about? Do you have a suggestion to share? Is there something we could improve upon?  

If you have something to tell us, please take the time to do so; your input is important to us.

Nonprofit Events & News
 

The Connect YS! Volunteer Site Up and Running for 45387 Nonprofits!

We have already onboarded many of our local nonprofits on the YSCF Volunteer Portal - Agraria, the Glen Helen Association, Tecumseh Land Trust, the YS Senior Center, John Bryan Community Pottery, the Tree Committee, and YS Schools. 

The YSCF would love to schedule more nonprofits to take advantage of this opportunity to engage the community through volunteer opportunities and events - especially as a clearing house for events! 

For this volunteer portal to be valuable to your organization and our community, we need your help first! We are planning a Volunteer Sign Up Campaign in February (this month) to help us launch this system to the public, but we need organizations to load up events and volunteer opportunities so there is something for them to engage with. 

How to start:

You can certainly do your own onboarding, on your own time. There are many resources available.
