The Monmouth Community Fund is a way for residents—and those who love Monmouth—to keep wealth in the community and support it forever.
The Monmouth Community Fund is a fund of the Galesburg Community Foundation. It was developed in 2023 when the community raised $70,000, which was matched by Galesburg Community Foundation, Twomey Foundation, and United Way of Greater Warren County.
Continued growth of the permanently endowed Monmouth Community Fund ensures that community needs are met today and well into the future. Guided by an advisory board, the fund supports the services and needs of Monmouth. Because the fund is endowed, the more the fund grows, the more dollars will be available each year to grant into the community.
Galesburg Community Foundation provides professional investment and administrative management for the Monmouth Community Fund, freeing up advisory board members to focus on donor relations and grant awards. Learn more about community funds.
The Monmouth Community Fund offers community and teacher mini grants. These grant opportunities fund projects that shape the future and promote the wellbeing of the Monmouth community. Applications for community and teacher mini grants are accepted from March 1-22.
