We work closely with non-profit organizations, donors, and their advisers to increase philanthropy in the community. Our detailed mission statement is simple, direct, and practical, compressed to just three strong words, "Better Our Community". BCF volunteer Trustees have displayed a committed unit to achieve this common service with pride.
Throughout the past year, our Trustees, Donors, and Friends have stepped forward to uphold the beliefs and rights of our community population. They have helped to prepare for a better community in the areas of art, culture, education, social endeavors, medical research, as well as medical aid. Because of your generosity, your independent foundation was able to grant over $100,000 in grants benefiting our community. To maximize the value of your gift, the BCF has continued its focus on the stewardship and investment. The foundation has done an excellent job at managing its investments and has exceeded benchmark returns. A heart felt thanks for all of our community support and trust! |
