New Name: The McKean County Community Fund
The McKean County Community Foundation (MCCF) Board of Directors is pleased to announce a name change to its general granting fund. The McKean County Development Fund is now The McKean County Community Fund. This simple but meaningful name change is more than just a new title. It is a renewed commitment to the people, places, and potential that defines McKean County.
The McKean County Community Fund is a flexible charitable fund that supports the community’s most pressing and changing needs, as determined by the foundation’s board and staff. Unlike restricted funds for specific causes, unrestricted funds allow the foundation to provide grants for urgent issues, long-term solutions, and future opportunities that may not be anticipated when the fund is established. We evaluate all aspects of community well-being: arts and culture, economic development, education, environment, health and human services, neighborhood revitalization, and more.
The support of our communities through their generous donations helps to grow the fund to continue to respond to requests from non-profit organizations for important programs that enhance the lives of our residents. Donations of any size are gratefully accepted at the McKean County Community Foundation, PO Box 708. Bradford, PA, 16701.
MCCF, an affiliate of the Community Foundation of the Northern Alleghenies, is a non-profit organization that strives to strengthen our region through development, stewardship and grant making as it works with donors to achieve their philanthropic goals.
