There are already some short-term needs in the community stemming from the Covid-19 pandemic, stated Ramsey – which contributed to the timing of the SCF announcement. A contribution to the Stanton Community Foundation is a way you can make a difference today, tomorrow and long into the future.
The Stanton Community Foundation has applied to the IRS for recognition as a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt public charity. “SCF establishes a manner for residents, alumni, former residents, really anyone to contribute and leave a lasting legacy that will benefit the community of Stanton for years to come,” said Ramsey. Action from the SCF can be both long range and very short range – as needs become available. The Stanton Community Foundation’s purpose is to benefit the community’s economic vitality by identifying, developing, and then funding projects which will grow and sustain our community.
The Stanton Community Foundation (SCF) allows anyone to leave a financial gift and a lasting legacy, and potentially receive tax benefits, according to Jenna Ramsey, the City of Stanton’s Community Development Director.
