Lamberton Area Community Foundation
The Lamberton Area Community Foundation launched in the summer of 2020 to create a meaningful way for neighbors and friends to give back to the community they love. 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 Lamberton area.
