"Community People Helping Community People" |
In 1974, The Florence Rotary Club envisioned growth and prosperity for western Lane County over the ensuing years. These visionaries also recognized a future opportunity to serve the community through philanthropic support. This was the motivation from which the Western Lane Community Foundation was born. Western Lane Community Foundation is a nonprofit organization chartered for the purpose of receiving, administering and distributing charitable funds for the benefit of residents in western Lane County, Oregon. Resources come from individuals, businesses and other organizations. WLCF selects qualified recipients for funding, based on need, in the form of grants, scholarships and donations for specific projects. The area served by the Foundation is Florence, Mapleton, Dunes City and Deadwood, Oregon. The Foundation's mission is to improve life throughout Western Lane County by encouraging and maintaining philanthropic activity. WLCF focuses its giving in four major areas: culture, medicine and science, education, and social and civic services. WLCF also manages funds designated for use by other nonprofit organizations. As a privately supported philanthropic organization with 501(c)(3) status, WLCF provieds federal and state tax advantages to individual and corporate donors. The Foundation has built a solid reputation over the past thirty-five years as a prudent and effective manager and investor of charitable funds. |
