HELP US REACH THE GOAL!
​Colesville Rotary Community Foundation will be an enduring resource for the Town of Colesville, working together with other Foundations and supporters to make common-sense funding decisions that support and improve the quality of life in the township.
​
Colesville Rotary Community Foundation volunteers are working hard to launch the new foundation with dollars that can be used right away to address current needs AND set-aside dollars that will be the base for a long-term endowment.
The goal is to raise a total of $100,000 in gifts and pledges by December 31, 2025. We have already raised $70,000 from current and former residents of the Town of Colesville. Will you help by making a gift today?
