"Let me just say thank you so much for the Board's generous donation. Without this money, I am not sure that the project would have gotten off the ground so fast. I believe that the donations from outside gropus really helped the USD 327 school board see that there was a lot of support for this project and they saw the value in doing this not only for the school children but also for the whole community. It really is an outstanding addition to our downtown-- something we can all be proud to call ours."

The Smoky Hills Community Fund is an unrestricted community grant fund. The Fund was created by the generosity of individuals who have contributed money to the Foundation for charitable uses, to be determined by the Foundation. From this endowed fund, the Foundation board annually designates the amount of available funding for these community grants.
