2021 Membership Campaign
This year instead of our normal campaign we will be adding funds to our endowment with the Dubois County Community Foundation. We’ve been very lucky to have an endowment setup as a part of our initial plan on creating a sustainable yearly source of income to weather any unexpected event such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Our endowment is an essential part of the safety net which secures it for future generations to enjoy. We believe in it so strongly that we will match donations up to $50,000 with our own funds until the end of December 2020.
