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.

The late Connie Day of Norfolk used a gift of life insurance to establish an endowment fund with NCF. And she entrusted her children to use her gift in ways that would benefit other children of Northeast Nebraska, whom she would never know, but cared deeply about.
