Glencoe Area Community Foundation
The Glencoe Community Foundation’s mission is to create a legacy with projects that matter, supported by people who care. Organized under the umbrella of Southwest Initiative Foundation, the community foundation is a vehicle for making charitable contributions for the benefit of the community through a permanent endowment fund that enables people to give back and fulfill the dreams for tomorrow. A local advisory board provides oversight and directs how funds will be used for the exclusive benefit of the Glencoe area.
