Exeter Area Community Foundation Fund
For generations, residents of Exeter and the surrounding area have enjoyed a wonderful quality of life. To ensure that future generations of Exeter residents continue to have that opportunity, the Exeter Area Community Foundation Fund was formed.
The Exeter Area Community Foundation Fund is dedicated to the improvement and long-term viability of the Community. The fund is governed by a volunteer Fund Advisory Committee that determines how donated funds are distributed to projects in the Exeter area. Donors may give unrestricted funds to the Foundation, or choose to give toward a specific project.
As an affiliated fund of the Nebraska Community Foundation, all contributions to the Exeter Area Community Foundation Fund are tax-deductible. The Nebraska Community Foundation is confirmed in compliance with the National Standards for U.S. Community Foundations, and has met the nation’s highest philanthropic standards of operational quality, integrity and accountability.

Manning Account
To provide matching funds for a challenge grant to the Exeter Community Foundation Fund to build an unrestricted endowment.
