Entrusting the Next Generation
Norfolk
Due to reduced state aid, the Norfolk school district was unable to fund its High Achievers summer classes in 2011. Thanks to the Connie Endowment Fund, children were able to participate through an alternative Summer Arts Challenge at the Norfolk Arts Center.

Preserving Community Assets

Several years after the high school in Trumbull closed in 1998, the Trumbull Community Foundation Fund took the lead in redeveloping the school building into a busy community center.
NCF affiliated funds are preserving our heritage and building for the future.
Helping Our Hometowns
Atkinson
The Atkinson Police Department is equipped to deal with increased drug trafficking on Highway 20, thanks to help from the Atkinson Community Foundation Fund. Within a month the Fund received enough donations to purchase a police dog.
