(KAIR)--Whether it be a "Match Day," a "Day of Giving," or some other similar fundraiser, community foundations are behind such endeavors, leaving some to ask "What is a Community Foundation?"
The answer will come on the evening of Wednesday, January 29, as the Atchison Area Community Foundation hosts a panel discussion regarding the organization which provides financial assistance to local non-profit agencies.
The evening, a release says, will be devoted to discussing charitable giving, local nonprofits, and critical community issues.
The discussion will begin at 7:00 at the Atchison Cultural Center for the Arts, located at 111 North 8th Street.
Drinks and light snacks will be served during the forum, which is open to the public.
The Atchison Community Foundation's "All Aboard Atchison" fundraiser, held in August of last year, generated more than $400,000 for Atchison-area not-for-profit agencies and organizations.
