COMMON Thread The Wabash Valley Community Foundation is the common thread that unites three counties, their people, their organizations and the community overall. Common threads of integrity, accountability, collaboration and transparency also run through the stories of how the Community Foundation supports the communities it serves. It is these core values that guide us to make important decisions that drive us toward enriching lives in the Wabash Valley.

OUR MISSION is to engage people, build resources and enrich lives.

OUR VISION is for a healthy, educated and thriving community.

OUR CORE VALUES Integrity We are honest and ethical in our approach. We value and respect all people and believe that building trust builds a better community.

Accountability We measure ourselves against the highest standards of philanthropy, stewardship and fiscal responsibility.

Collaboration We work strategically in partnership and provide leadership, when needed, to achieve our vision.

Transparency We communicate, both internally and externally, with candor, honesty and respect.

PRESIDENT’S LETTER As the Wabash Valley Community Foundation approaches its 30th Anniversary, we are mindful that our role as a community foundation is expansive and evolving. Though we continue to adapt to new challenges and emerging opportunities, one thing has not changed — the Community Foundation remains committed to honoring our donors’ charitable legacy, just as we have done since 1992.

Throughout 2021, we undertook a comprehensive planning process to guide our work going forward. Our board members, service committee members and staff participated in an intentional and thorough process reflecting on the strengths, needs and opportunities within our communities and our organization. Together, we developed an ambitious five-year strategic framework focusing on the Community Foundation’s key roles:

COMMUNITY CONVENER AND IMPACT CATALYST CHARITABLE STEWARD PARTNER TO NONPROFITS These three roles are so encompassing and dynamic that they are the framework of our 2022-2027 Strategic Plan.

As we embark on this plan and look to the future, we do so with hope and gratitude, as well as an unwavering commitment to our donors and to the needs of our communities. The generosity of our donors has allowed us to address the challenges and opportunities facing our communities through our grant making and philanthropic services. We remain incredibly grateful for the opportunity to align our work and values in order to maximize the impact of the Community Foundation’s efforts in the Wabash Valley.

In addition to planning for the future, 2021 was a year of meaningful activity as we effectively lived our mission of engaging people, building resources and enriching lives. In order to implement the Lilly Endowment GIFT VII grants, we added Community Engagement Officers for Clay and Sullivan counties to our staff. Working within their respective counties, these individuals will better connect the Community Foundation to local, impactful opportunities to benefit residents throughout the Wabash Valley. We also launched the third tier of our COVID-19 grants: the Recovery Phase. This enabled the Community Foundation to award over $230,000 in matching challenge grants to assist nonprofit organizations in Clay, Sullivan and Vigo counties as they financially recover from COVID-related lost revenue and contributions.

We are pleased to present this annual report to our communities and invite you to read about the impact made in 2021 because of your support and the important work of our grantees and donors. All of this would not be possible without the common thread we share with you — a dedication to achieve our vision for healthy, educated and thriving communities. Thank you.

Sally Zuel President, Wabash Valley Community Foundation

The Impact We Made in 2021: Year in Review The Community Foundation stays true to its values by working strategically in partnership and providing leadership, when needed, to achieve our vision of a healthy, educated and thriving community.

This partnership is evident through the grants made to nonprofit organizations to strengthen local communities — yet, the greatest partnership is the one we hold with you, our philanthropic donors.

Though the needs and opportunities in the Wabash Valley will change, the importance of addressing those needs will remain constant. By choosing the Community Foundation as your partner in philanthropy, your gifts act as one of the many common threads that come together to help us achieve our vision. Each individual thread becomes stronger when woven together. And by working together, every impact is magnified.

Strategic Plan The Community Foundation adopted a comprehensive strategic plan in 2021 to chart our direction over the next five years. Initiated in late 2020, the strategic planning process included a board retreat, SWOT analysis, focus groups, community leader interviews, research on best practices, as well as benchmarking against other community foundations. Concerted efforts were made to capture many stakeholder voices in a variety of meaningful ways.

COVID Recovery In November 2020, the Community Foundation surveyed nonprofit organizations to determine the financial effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The responses showed staggering deficits, with organizations reporting a dramatic reduction in private funding due to canceled fundraisers and programs, loss of earned income revenue and a decrease in individual donations resulting in layoffs, program delivery limitations and risk of closure.

The Community Foundation responded by launching the Recovery Phase of its COVID-19 response, in which it allocated over $230,000 in challenge grants as an opportunity for organizations to recover from the adverse financial effects of the pandemic. Read more on page 10.

A Deeply Rooted History of Community Involvement  For nearly 40 years, Hoosier Energy supported the Sullivan County community through various charitable efforts. In April 2021, Hoosier Energy established the Hoosier Energy Endowment Fund for Sullivan County with a $33,334 gift — affirming its lasting commitment to Sullivan County and its residents. Hoosier Energy’s gift amount leveraged an additional $66,668 from Lilly Endowment Inc. through its GIFT initiative, resulting in a $100,000 endowment to benefit Sullivan County forever.

Planning for the Future In 2021, the Community Foundation received $7.8M in bequests, trusts, estate and other gifts to benefit the Wabash Valley. The foresight of these donors and their interest in helping others and giving back to the communities where they lived, worked and enjoyed life will benefit others for many years to come.

Estate gifts can also preserve the memory of those who make them, allowing their names and their family names to live on forever, just as the impact of their generosity should live on forever. Read more on page 35.

Meeting Challenges  The Community Foundation’s Clay County affiliate awarded a $75,000 grant to the REIN Coalition to help with the matching challenge for the Wilma and Liston Buell Community Center. This grant was matched at $2 for every $1 by an anonymous donor, resulting in a $225,000 gift for Clay County residents. Read more on page 6.

Giving Circles Coordinated by the Community Foundation, these five philanthropic groups provide support for local nonprofit organizations while creating a sense of community. Members gather four times per year, pool together contributions, make nominations and then vote for an organization. To date, these groups have helped leverage over $1.2 million in permanently endowed funds for the benefit of Clay, Sullivan and Vigo counties.

CONNECTING TO

COMMUNITY OP As you read through this annual report, the common thread that is evident in every story is the sincere desire to improve the quality of life for residents of the Wabash Valley. This can take the form of connecting donors with effective organizations, stewarding giving in times of crisis, championing the work of other nonprofits or by directing resources to address larger community needs and opportunities.

The REIN Coalition was formed in 2009 in an effort to create a new and unique community center for the benefit of Clay County. Comprised of eight Clay City residents, members selected the name REIN to reflect the planned purpose of the community center: recreation, education, information and nutrition. These four ideologies are what the REIN Coalition strives to provide not only to residents of Clay City, but to those residing in all ten townships of Clay County.

Shortly after its formation, the Coalition identified the need for a facility capable of housing meetings and events for various community organizations. Plans were made to build a conventional metal building and the Coalition has spent the past decade working towards building such a facility that will undoubtedly be an upgrade from the organization’s current Orange Building located in Clay City.

“The Orange Building has basically seen its better days,” explained Paul Sinders, Clay County Commissioner.

“There is no air conditioning and the heating system does not work well in the winter time. In all honesty, it is time to move on and a new facility would be great to meet the many needs that we have for a meeting place in the Clay City area.”

In late 2019, the project received a much-needed boost thanks to an anonymous donor offering a $2-for-$1 million challenge grant to the community, up to $1 million. This challenge grant would assure the construction of a large community center that would not only house a larger food pantry, but would also benefit the YMCA, 4-H clubs, Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, and be available for graduation parties, birthday parties, wedding receptions and much more.

Acknowledging the Community Center as an opportunity to invest in the Clay County community, as well as the significant potential impact of such a facility, the Community Foundation’s Clay County affiliate awarded the REIN Coalition with a $75,000 grant toward what will be known as the Wilma and Liston Buell Community Center.

“The Community Foundation had focused on using a portion of its grant dollars for larger projects in Clay County,” said Brian Deakins, Wabash Valley Community Foundation board member and president of the Clay County Community Foundation. “We identified the Wilma and Liston Buell Community Center as a significant project that would benefit Clay County residents and were pleased to provide this $75,000 grant to the REIN Coalition.”

In addition to housing the food pantry and being available for organizational use, the Wilma and Liston Buell Community Center will also house a fitness area and library, thereby connecting residents to opportunities in their community.

EDUC aTIO

INVESTING IN

Nelson Mandela once said, “Education is the most powerful [tool] which you can use to change the world.” Education helps people become better citizens, obtain better-paying jobs, shows the importance of hard work and, at the same time, helps people grow and develop.

In 2019, the Community Foundation retained Entrepreneurial Ecosystems (e2) to help community leaders determine the primary drivers for their community’s success, thereby serving as a starting point for leaders to focus on genuine development opportunities. One common thread found in each community was that education is considered a strategic priority.

The Vigo County School Corporation (VCSC), together with the Vigo County community, works to inspire students to discover their talents and rise to their greatest potential. Building upon the strengths of its diverse community, the VCSC creates an engaging, comprehensive educational environment that supports the growth of lifelong learners.

“It’s a new day in Terre Haute – Vigo County, where citizens, youth, community and government leaders are coming together at one of the community’s biggest turning points in history.”

In 2021, the VCSC and the Terre Haute Chamber of Commerce launched the first annual Team Vigo Student Leadership Conference (TVSLC) and Service Learning Challenge. The two-day TVSLC equipped high school student leaders both intellectually and practically to run successful programs at their respective high schools and within the community. The conference allowed students to engage with business and educational leaders through activity-filled presentations, professional development breakout sessions and networking opportunities.

The conference also inspired students with a sense of their role in fulfilling the, “See You in Terre Haute 2025 Community Plan.” As described in the vision of the Community Plan, “It’s a new day in Terre Haute – Vigo County, where citizens, youth, community and government leaders are coming together at one of the community’s biggest turning points in history.” The TVSLC program works to address students’ current and future roles in meeting the goals of the plan.

“The Team Vigo Student Leadership Conference aligns with the talent attraction and retention goals of the Chamber and the See You in Terre Haute Community Plan,” explained Kristin Craig, President of the Terre Haute Chamber of Commerce. “We’re working to build a stronger community and that starts with the people. We’re hoping that the takeaway for students is the potential they have and the potential our community has, as well.”

Through the TVSLC, students had the opportunity to attend two field trips to Indianapolis. During the first field trip, students met with leaders in academics, the arts, clubs and athletics, as well as attended a panel discussion. Students also engaged with state representatives on important issues expected in upcoming legislative sessions. During the second Indianapolis field trip, students visited the state capitol, attended a legislative session and met with state officials.

In support of the VCSC’s long-term efforts, the Community Foundation invested $6,500 toward the Team Vigo Student Leadership Conference. This grant assisted the VCSC in exposing students to leadership beyond the local community and helped to strengthen the community’s relationship with state leaders.

STRENGTHENING OUR

NONPROFIT ORGA

From Response to Recovery In 2020, the Community Foundation swiftly implemented its pandemic response, changing much of what we do and how we do it. Within days of the first case being reported in the Wabash Valley, the Community Foundation had established a Rapid Response Grants process that would provide nearly $100,000 in immediate support with Clay, Sullivan and Vigo counties. Within weeks, the Community Foundation, in partnership with the United Way of the Wabash Valley, established its second response – the Wabash Valley COVID-19 Relief Fund. This collaboration resulted in $1.1 million being granted to nonprofit organizations across six counties.

In December 2020, the Community Foundation launched the Recovery Phase, its third response, by issuing a revenue loss survey to Vigo County nonprofit organizations to determine the financial effects of the pandemic. The survey responses showed staggering deficits, with organizations reporting a dramatic reduction in private funding due to cancelled fundraisers and programs, loss of earned income revenue and a decrease in individual donations resulting in layoffs, program delivery limitations and the risk of closure.

As fundraising efforts are vital to any nonprofit operating budget, the ongoing effects of the pandemic placed the future of some local nonprofit organizations at a severe risk and harmed the trajectory of others. This prompted the Community Foundation to determine how it could create meaningful impact.

“The Community Foundation has a reputation spanning nearly three decades for providing much needed assistance to our community.”

The Community Foundation piloted a progam of two local nonprofit organizations by issuing $1-for-$2 matching challenge grants to provide an infusion of funding in order to maintain operations. The Community Foundation provided a Recovery Grant Program to strengthen two organizations whose missions complement the “See You In Terre Haute 2025 Community Plan.”

The Terre Haute Children’s Museum and the Sheldon Swope Art Museum, due to their presence as Terre Haute attractions and their roles in creating a thriving downtown and vibrant community, received $1-for-$2 challenge grants in the amount of $70,000 and $15,000, requiring the museums to raise over $140,000 and $30,000, respectively. Both entities were successful in their fundraising, exceeding their respective challenges thanks to individuals taking advantage of year-end giving to help the organizations meet their matches.

The overwhelming success of the matching challenge grants allowed for the expansion of the Recovery Grant Program, providing all eligible 501(c)(3) organizations in Clay, Sullivan and Vigo counties the opportunity to apply for up to $10,000 in a $1-for-$2 match. Approximately 23 organizations applied.

ANI zATIONS “The Community Foundation has a reputation spanning nearly three decades for providing much needed assistance within our community,” said Sally Zuel, Wabash Valley Community Foundation Board President. “As the Wabash Valley continues to move forward, we know there is much to be done to not only fight the [COVID-19] disease, but to help our nonprofit organizations survive and thrive. This matching challenge grant opportunity will support our important nonprofit community in the Wabash Valley and help meet our mission of engaging people, building resources and enriching lives.”

To meet the match, each nonprofit organization had to raise $2 from its supporters to receive $1 from the Community Foundation, up to the amount of its grant, by September 30, 2021.

Preserving History Since 1933, a 20x30 hand painted sign has welcomed visitors to the small town of Bowling Green, Indiana. The impressive structure serves as a sense of pride for residents and provides a brief history of the town, as well as a listing of its founding families.

For nearly nine decades, the sign has required renovation every few years due to weathering. In 2021, officials declared the sign in dire need of repair as the peeling paint made the graphics nearly illegible. “[This] sign has been up since 1933,” said Darla Frisz, member of Bowling Green Old Settlers. “They have all been hand painted.

Depending on what materials you use, they have lasted various amounts of time. Generally five to seven years in most cases.”

To increase the longevity of the sign, officials opted to use durable aluminum composite panels and replaced the hand painted graphics with UV-coated digital prints. Though it is likely the sign will last longer than it has in the past, officials were tasked with raising between $10,000 and $20,000 to renovate the structure.

To assist in the renovation and repair of the sign and help preserve Bowling Green and Clay County’s history, the Community Foundation’s Clay County affiliate awarded a grant in the amount of $8,000. Once the installation is complete, the residents of Bowling Green will once again feel a sense of pride as people visit their small town.

Delivering Nutritional Care Established in 1971, the Terre Haute Area Meals on Wheels, Inc. exists to deliver nutritious, diet specific meals year-round to the elderly, sick, disabled, home-bound and at-risk children in Vigo County who cannot provide for themselves. Up until last year, the organization had been operating out the Wabash Activity Center.

“That was fine for a while, but we’ve grown so much that our services are up 189% from two years ago,” said Rita Mace Kaperak, Executive Director of the Terre Haute Area Meals on Wheels. “The residentialstyle kitchen just isn’t equipped to prepare that many meals and there’s still so many more people who need our services.”

Kaperak explained the plan had been to purchase a building in several years; however, the increased need for services called for immediate action in order to keep from closing down the program.

Goodwill Industries Endowment Fund Wabash Valley Goodwill Industries, Inc. $4,218.00

After securing a loan for the first time in the organization’s history, the Meals on Wheels purchased a building located at 1621 S. 25th Street and used money from its savings account to purchase and/or replace everything needed to become fully licensed with the state of Indiana and the local Board of Health. This new location will allow volunteers to prepare meals in a commercially equipped kitchen, as well as to offer meal opportunities in other communities.

“Meals on Wheels isn’t just for the destitute or the elderly anymore,” said Kaperak. “We’re here to help anybody who’s not eating nutritionally, and we try to feed everyone who calls.”

Enhancing Community Pride The Sullivan Area Art Guild (SAG) was established in 1976 by a small group of like-minded artists to encourage and promote art in the Sullivan, Indiana area. A vital part of the Sullivan community, the SAG routinely participates in parades, displays work in community buildings, and offers classes to adults and children to ensure it meets its mission of supporting and enhancing visual art in the community.

Though SAG members have their art displayed in an art gallery, in various windows around town and inside a few businesses, there are no murals.

“We felt [that murals] would greatly enhance our downtown and the city as a whole,” explained Sharon Hawk, SAG member and Gallery and Education Director. “We [received approval from the business owner] and will be painting a mural on the outside wall of a building that faces the downtown square in Sullivan. We are very excited to see this project develop and finish!”

Hawk said she believes the mural will result in a wonderful piece of visual art for the community and anticipates it will elicit positive feelings from residents of Sullivan County and visitors alike.

“This will bring attention to the importance of visual art in a time that it is being cut from many schools in our county,” she added. “We anticipate there will be others who will want to be part of this creation!”

The SAG is in the process of creating a large scale drawing to prepare for the application onto the wall and will transfer the drawing later this spring. Guild members plan to invite members of the community to help with the painting of the mural, feeling that it will be more valuable to the community if they feel some ownership in its creation.

To assist with the creation of the project and enhance community pride, the Community Foundation awarded a $2,700 grant.

Full-circle Scholarship Support Scholarship funds at the Community Foundation provide annual educational aid for students at institutions of higher learning. Each donor, or group of donors, determines scholarship award conditions, and the diversity of eligibility criteria reflects the variety of donor motivations to create or support scholarship funds. However, each donor shares a common bond in that they establish these scholarships in order to make a difference in the lives of others.

Colonel H. Allen Boyd was among Terre Haute South Vigo High School’s first graduating class in 1972. After graduation, he attended Georgia Tech through an Army ROTC Scholarship. For the next four years, Col. Boyd studied aerospace engineering. He graduated in 1976 with a Regular Army commission, and his four-year service commitment turned into a 26-year career as an intelligence officer serving around the world.

After retiring from the Army, Col. Boyd took that experience and the engineering education into industry as an executive with Rockwell Collins in Cedar Rapids, then to ITT Aerospace/Defense in Fort Wayne where he was the general manager of ITT’s military communications business until 2010. Since then, he has served as a consultant to both the Army and Defense industries.

“I was blessed with multiple successful careers enabled by a great foundation built in Vigo County Schools and at Georgia Tech,” he said. “I could not have gone to college without an ROTC scholarship. It made a huge difference in my life, and my wife and I believe in paying it forward when possible.”

One way for Col. Boyd to pay it forward was to establish a scholarship for Terre Haute South Vigo students to encourage and foster collegiate study in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), as Col. Boyd sees those areas of study as critical in the future. In 2021, in celebration of the 50th Anniversary of Terre Haute South Vigo High School, the Community Foundation awarded Col. Boyd’s inaugural Terre Haute South Vigo STEM Scholarship of $10,000 to Alisha Mastakar.

Mastakar, a 2021 graduate of Terre Haute South Vigo High School, is a freshman at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology as a member of the Noblitt Scholars, a program for students with strong academic credentials and a passion to make a difference in the world.

Alisha Mastakar

As an Engineering Physics major, Mastakar notes that her major will allow her to delve deep and figure out why and how things work the way they do. Though she is not one hundred percent certain of her career path, her chosen field of study will provide her with an abundance of choices ranging from aerospace, computer, electrical, mechanical and/or nuclear engineering.

Mastakar credits the opportunity to achieve her educational goals and attend the top-rated undergraduate engineering school in the country to the support she has received, such as being the first recipient of the Terre Haute South Vigo STEM Scholarship.

“It’s really nice to have this support,” she said, explaining that the assistance has empowered her to focus on academics and has opened doors beyond the classroom. One particular door is the chance to explore other avenues to approach her learning. Mastakar enjoys participating in live theater, and she has joined productions at Terre Haute South and in her first semester at Rose-Hulman.

“Theater is a creative outlet,” she said, adding, “Engineering is a different type of creativity.”

Learning, creativity and paying it forward — all made possible by a common thread.

WAYS TO

No matter what your charitable goal is, we will work with you and your professional adviser to devise a giving strategy crafted specifically for you.

When you partner with the Community Foundation, you can support your favorite cause, charity or nonprofit organization through a gift – now or later. Giving to the Community Foundation is flexible.

You can give to an existing fund or establish your own. You can also choose to make a gift to a Community Grant Fund in Clay, Sullivan or Vigo counties, allowing the Community Foundation to provide grants impacting the lives of each county’s citizens now and in the future.

The Community Foundation is able to accept a wide array of assets as contributions to a fund.

Because the Community Foundation is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, contributors will receive the most valuable tax benefits available under the law. Ways you can make an outright gift today include: CASH is the easiest way to contribute, whether it is actual cash or a check. The Community Foundation’s website, wvcf.org, is a convenient way to give using a credit or debit card.

APPRECIATED SECURITIES, when donated directly to the community foundation, allow you to avoid paying the capital gains tax while providing an accompanying income tax deduction for the current fair-market value.

IRA CHARITABLE ROLLOVERS provide several benefits. If you are age 70 ½ and older, you may make a gift up to $100,000 from your IRA directly to the Community Foundation. For those 72 ½ and older, the gift can also be used to count against your IRA required minimum distribution (RMD).

You can specify the way your gift will be used for the betterment of the Wabash Valley while paying no taxes on the transfer. (Congress does not allow you to create a donor advised fund with an IRA Charitable Rollover.)

GIFTS OF LIFE INSURANCE The Community Foundation can be designated as the beneficiary of your life insurance, which allows you an immediate tax deduction and usually approximates the cash surrender value of the policy.

co r e v a l

26

REAL ESTATE OR PERSONAL PROPERTY may be given to the Community Foundation. Of course, all gifts qualify for a charitable tax deduction in the year the gift was made in accordance with IRS rules.

Donor Involvement

RETIREMENT IRA AND PENSION ASSETS can be given to the Community Foundation by designating the Wabash Valley Community Foundation, Inc. as a beneficiary.

PRIVATE FOUNDATIONS OR TRUSTS often require significant time and money to manage. By transferring your private foundation or charitable trust to the Community Foundation, all responsibilities for reports and administrative duties will be carried out by the staff of the Community Foundation, which allows you to focus on the charitable purpose. Since the Community Foundation is a public charity and does not pay excise tax, more income is available for charitable purposes.

A DEFERRED GIFT, made through your will or estate plan, will provide you the opportunity to leave a legacy of giving that will help shape the future of the Wabash Valley. The Community Foundation will work cooperatively with you and your financial adviser to create an endowment that will ensure that your wishes are properly followed when the gift is ultimately received. The following are considered to be deferred gifts: A testamentary gift, or bequest in your will.

A charitable remainder trust allows you or someone you choose to receive an income for life from assets transferred to a trust.

A charitable gift annuity is a simple way to make a substantial gift while retaining the right to a fixed annual income for life.

GIVING CIRCLE membership is an excellent way to collaborate with like-minded individuals to make a collective difference for neighbors in need.

To learn more about ways to give, visit us online at wvcf.org/donate and make an online donation through our secured transaction process. Or, you can mail your donation to 200 South 8th Street, Terre Haute, IN 47807.

If you wish to make a gift of stock, please contact Beth Tevlin at 812-232-2234 prior to doing so to obtain the necessary information. If you are considering making a deferred gift, Beth would be happy to meet with you to discuss your options.

THE LEGACY

Committed to Making a Difference – For good. For ever.® The Legacy Society of the Wabash Valley Community Foundation recognizes the generous, forwardthinking individuals and couples who have made a commitment to secure their legacy and the Wabash Valley’s future by including the Community Foundation in their estate plans.

The Wabash Valley is filled with thriving, vibrant communities thanks, in part, to these visionaries who have left provisions in their estate plans to provide meaningful and vital support to nonprofit organizations throughout our area. In doing so, they have committed to investing in the future of our communities through a planned gift — thereby creating a legacy of impact that will span generations and define the Wabash Valley’s future.

Though these gifts will continue to make our communities stronger and more vibrant places to call home, it is the legacy of these individuals and couples that will make the greatest impact. When someone shares their legacy, they are sharing their story — a reflection of who they are, the values that have shaped them and their hopes and dreams for the future.

We are humbled by those who have chosen to make a difference by including the Community Foundation in their estate plans and gratefully acknowledge the common thread that unites them — a commitment to their communities.

Preservation for Posterity The legacy of a former Terre Haute resident will live on for generations thanks to an endowment fund established through a bequest.

As with all gift types to the Community Foundation, a bequest allows individuals to choose which organizations will benefit in perpetuity. Oftentimes, individuals will elect to benefit community organizations they supported throughout their lifetimes or causes close to their heart.

June K. Swango and her husband, J. Morton Swango, traveled extensively to the East Coast for deep sea fishing and to the Western Plains and mountains.

Mrs. Swango was fascinated with the American West and collected publications and Native American items from the Plains, Plateau and Southwest regions.

June Swango

When Mrs. Swango passed away in April of 2019, she left provisions in her will to create the J. Morton & June K. Swango Fund for the benefit of four local organizations. As she was an ardent supporter of natural history and

Creating a Lasting Legacy

a champion for the preservation of natural lands, the Fund will continue her legacy and provide annual support to the Terre Haute Parks and Recreation Department, TREES Inc., Vigo County Historical Society and Vigo County Parks and Recreation Department. In 2021, the Community Foundation made the first distributions from the Fund ­— granting a total of $48,758 for the benefit of the four designated Vigo County organizations.

The Legacy Society recognizes those individuals who have chosen to leave a lasting charitable legacy in the Wabash Valley by including the Community Foundation in their will, trust or estate plan. The Legacy Society honors its members’ charitable passions while establishing its members as philanthropic role models in our community.

Estate planning is an ideal way to provide for the future.

By entrusting gifts to the Community Foundation, donors can ensure that their contributions will be used wisely to address future community needs and that their personal legacies will be extended far beyond their lifetimes.

It is thanks to the foresight of community-minded individuals that allows the Community Foundation to continue to enrich lives in Clay, Sullivan and Vigo counties. As charitable stewards for our community’s philanthropic endowments, we are grateful for Mrs. Swango’s generosity and look forward to honoring her legacy in perpetuity.

Many consider a gift from their estate to be the most meaningful gift as it preserves their family name and creates a charitable legacy to support the causes they care about.

The Legacy Society includes those committed to improving the quality of life and supporting the opportunities in our communities for future generations.

Members are visionaries who believe in the power of endowment to change lives and transform the communities they call home.

If you wish to create a legacy beyond your lifetime in the form of a bequest, we encourage you to call us at 812-232-2234 or look on this page for information on how to join The Legacy Society.

Those who include the Community Foundation in a planned gift — bequest, trust, life insurance or retirement assets — are invited to inform us of their plans and join The Legacy Society. Often, these meaningful gifts go unrecognized because they come at the end of a donor’s life. The Legacy Society is our way of acknowledging your commitment to the future — today.

If you have already included the Community Foundation in your estate plans and would like to be recognized as a member of The Legacy Society, please let us know. If you would like to speak in confidence about supporting your favorite charitable causes, nonprofit organizations or community needs in perpetuity, please contact Beth Tevlin, Executive Director, at 812-232-2234.
