About Us

The main purposes of the River Bluff Community Foundation are to build community endowments, be a resource for a broad range of community needs (arts and culture, education, health and human services, historic preservation, etc.) and to assist donors in creating a variety of giving options.

 

The River Bluff Community Foundation was formed in 2005 as an affiliate of the Community Foundation of Great River Bend. The founding members of the organization had a vision to ensure that our communities' charitable programs were supported now - and in the future. We work together with many individuals, families, businesses, and organizations to establish endowment funds that will provide grant awards for years to come.

 

The River Bluff Community Foundation is governed by a local board of directors who are active in our local communities. Members of our board of directors are:

 

Carol Machael, President

William Zickau, Vice President

Larry Dennis

Gary Foster, CPA

Dave Helscher - Past President
