About
Now there is a way you or your loved ones can be remembered and help your home area at the same time.
The Arthur Area Association of Commerce, along with the Village of Arthur, formed the Arthur Community Foundation in February of 2012. The purpose of the Foundation is to be a receptacle for gifts and memorials to be used to provide community services, exclusive of commercial ventures, for the benefit of the Arthur area citizens. Those gifts can be given with no special request in mind or can be designated for a special purpose.
All contributions made to the Foundation will be available for disbursement in support of allowable activities within the area. All projects will be selected by the Arthur Community Foundation’s local board, unless specific requests have been made at the time of the donation.
Residents of the Arthur area will benefit from generous lifetime gifts and estate bequests for our parks, library, fire and rescue, nursing home and other civic projects. The Arthur Community Foundation will permit such future gifts to be deductible for income, estate and gift tax purposes.
