The Community Foundation of Greater Muscatine recently hosted its annual meeting, marking a significant milestone — 25 years of impact, collaboration and community transformation. The event served as a moment of celebration, reflection and renewed commitment to catalyzing initiatives that enhance the well-being of Muscatine and Louisa counties. L to R: Charla Schafer, Jamie Leza, and Jim Nepple Attendees gathered to celebrate a quarter-century of progress, highlighting the foundation’s role in fostering generosity and strategic investments in local priorities.
The event also showcased the many ways individuals and organizations can invest in our community — whether through donor-advised funds, organization funds, endowment funds or unrestricted giving. L to R: Pat Mundell and Tom Hendricks A highlight of the evening was the recognition of individuals and organizations: L to R: Judi Holdorf and Angie Johnson In a powerful display of collective generosity, attendees had the opportunity to vote on the recipient of a special grant. As a result, the Micaela’s Hope Endowment Fund and the Domestic Violence Shelter of MCSA Organization Fund each received a $2,500 award in recognition of the Community Foundation’s 25th anniversary.
A special thanks to Gage and Geri Kent, as well as Jim and Rebecca Howe, for offering a matching grant at the event, enabling two organizations to be recognized. As the Community Foundation embarks on its next 25 years, the foundation will continue to support charitable gifts from donors and organizations, transforming the landscape of today and for the next generation.
