The Foundation is an Affiliate Foundation of Greater Northwest Kansas Community Foundation with all funds managed by GNWKCF.

About the Foundation

The Foundation has been an Agency Foundation of Greater Northwest Kansas Community Foundation since May 2017 with select funds managed by GNWKCF. The Foundation serves as a ‘savings account’ for the good of Logan County; paving the way for legacies to be made through financial gifts. Logan County Community Foundation provides an avenue for donors to give to for projects, county-wide or community specific needs, and personalized giving that best suits the donor’s wishes.

Match Month

During the month of February, donations to the Logan County Endowment Fund will be matched $1 for $1 by the Dane G. Hansen Foundation!  Each year through 2025, the Dane G Hansen Foundation will continue to match up to $50,000 ($1 for $1) during our designated Match Month! Between our local donations and the Hansen match, our fund grows at a rate of $100,000 each year, at minimum, and that doesn’t include the investment returns!! A huge thank you for helping us grow this fund!

Also, if we reach $50,000, a “bonus gift” of $25,000 will be awarded to our foundation to build our local operating fund, for a total potential gift of $75,000. Our goal is to raise $50,000 each year so that we can fully leverage the bonus grant which brings us to a grand total of $125,000 per year!

Donor Advised Funds (DAF’s)

Donors receive charitable gift receipts for the contributions to their established DAF.  The fund is normally named in someone’s memory or established as a “Family Fund”, however, the donor(s) may personalize as they wish.  The donor(s) are setup as the advisors to their Fund, which allows them to make all grant recommendations from their DAF.  Grant recommendations must be to qualifying charitable 501(c)(3) organizations, educational, government or religious entities per IRS rules.  The donor(s) may name succeeding generations as successor advisors or transition it to the Foundation to advise over upon donor(s) death.

Keep 5 in Kansas

We have an opportunity in Logan County to turn our hopes for the future into reality! If we capture a portion of the transfer of wealth from one generation to the next – even just 5% – by setting up endowments through the Logan County Community Foundation, we could provide a permanent source of funding for our local organizations and causes that will greatly improve the lives of the residents of Logan County.
