“People can get overwhelmed by the thought of doing something significant and so they never get it done. The Community Foundation is a great way to get expertise, gain knowledge about your options, and make a plan so you can achieve your charitable goals and be purposeful in your giving.”
– David Erickson, Galesburg Community Foundation Board Chair

At Galesburg Community Foundation, our goal is to make philanthropy as simple as possible by offering a variety of giving options.
Galesburg Community Foundation offers a variety of options that make it simple for you to give in ways that have a meaningful impact on your community right now, and well into the future.
When you create or invest in an existing endowment fund, you’re ensuring the causes you care about will have the ability to address whatever needs arise in the future. And while those needs may change, the importance of addressing them remains constant.
Over the next 10 years, $2.1 billion will be transferred from one generation to the next in Knox and Warren Counties. What if some of that money, even a fraction, stayed in our rural communities like Knoxville, Roseville, Williamsfield, Monmouth or Alexis—right in your communities where your wealth was built?
By making a planned gift while you are living, you can ensure the causes you care about today will be supported forever. Make your core values known by joining the Bickerdyke Society and making a planned gift at the Galesburg Community Foundation.
To learn more about the ways your can have an impact on your community through philanthropy, contact Sarah Grant, Director of Development, at 309.344.8898.
