Special People Deserve Special Recognition.

 

The Community Foundation of Central Wisconsin can help you to recognize special people who have made a difference in your life and the life of the community. Donations can be made in honor or in memory to an individual, family, organization, etc. Special funds can also be created to handle specific honoraries and memorials.

Honorary Gifts

 

Donors give to the Community Foundation of Central Wisconsin for many reasons when they wish to honor an individual, family, organization, etc.

 

Contributions may be made to any existing funds in order to do many things:

• celebrate and honor a living person
• memorialize persons at the time of their death
• celebrate anniversaries
• recognize special birthdays
• say thank you for a job well done
• for no reason at all- other than to benefit your community!

Memorial Gifts

 

If you are currently facing a loved one's death, consider memorializing them through the establishment of a fund or by giving a gift to the Community Foundation. You may be content to ask that contributions in lieu of flowers be made to a specific fund at the Community Foundation of Central Wisconsin. Or, you may want to create a fund that will bear your loved one's name.

 

Contributions made in memory of a loved one or made as a way to celebrate a special occasion are highlighted in publications by the Community Foundation. These lists are published on our website at www.cfcwi.org.

 

The Community Foundation of Central Wisconsin is grateful for contributions made in memory of friends and loved ones who have passed away. Remembrances contributed to funds within the Community Foundation are a fitting tribute to those who have enriched our lives and our community. These are truly gifts that keep on giving.
