Creating a Lasting Resource
The Rutherford County Endowment serves donors and nonprofits. This endowment fund was established in 1996 by caring individuals who recognized the importance of a permanent charitable capital resource to support the ever-changing needs and opportunities in Rutherford County.
Contributions made to the Rutherford County Endowment are pooled and invested by The Community Foundation. Proceeds from the investments are used to make grants while the original gifts remain intact, continuing to grow for the benefit of future generations. You can make a difference in Rutherford County by making a tax-deductible gift of cash, securities or other assets.
Pool your gift with those of your neighbors to do the most good.
Generosity multiplied.
