Or, if you still aren’t sure which organizations to support, you might consider a contribution to your Community Foundation’s Fund for Marshall or Marshall Youth Fund. Donations to these funds are pooled to support local non-profits’ innovative programs that respond to our Community’s evolving needs. Last year alone, we distributed $154,859 to 36 different agencies.
None of this is possible without the generosity of people like you.
No matter the size of your gift, we ALL win when we support the good work of our neighbors.
