“….it is not so much what the Chamber

does for the individual,

but what the individual in cooperation

with his neighbors can do for the community

of which he, himself, is a part.”

President Stellberg, June 18, 1959

In our own lives, each of us was touched by someone – other then our parents – who introduced us to new worlds and brought a little magic into our lives… catching fireflies for the first time, flying a kite, a first trip to the ballpark, building sandcastles at the beach, eating an ice cream sundae. By becoming a Big Brother or Big Sister, you can do the same for a child. And you will both be forever changed by the experience.
 
New volunteers and corporate partners are  needed to mentor children in the Dodge County area schools and communities every day. There are so many children in the county that need a friend in their life – make a difference, be a friend and help put hope in their future. Please consider volunteering, becoming a corporate partner, or  making a financial contribution today.

The Horicon Area Foundation is
….. an independent, non-profit, philanthropic trust for the benefit of the community
…..a depository for gifts and funds given by donors, individuals or corporations, to meet community needs
In 1986 the Horicon Community Development Corporation organized and chartered the Foundation through which public spirited citizens could make lasting gifts for the long term needs of the community.
 
The wise distribution of money for community philanthropy is the only goal of the Foundation, which assures donors that gifts received and distributions made from the Foundation are based on the following principles:

  • Meeting the greatest local needs in the most constructive way
  • Guaranteeing flexibility by adapting to changing conditions if an original gift purpose becomes obsolete.
  • Permanent administration of funds under the direction of community leaders serving as trustees.
  • Obtaining maximum tax advantages for the donor, the donor’s heirs and estate.
  • Perpetuating a Memorial
  • Simplified gift-making….A donor simply passes his gift of cash, stocks, bonds, real estate to the Foundation with a letter stating the nature of contribution.
