Dozens of local businesses and fishermen donated more than $9,200, putting us well on the way to reaching our $20,000 campaign goal. Their donations also helped secure an additional $10,000 in matching funds from the Rasmuson Foundation in 2013.

A Gift that Keeps on Giving :
Donor Makes Grants Possible with a Recurring Gift
Deborah Davis is impacting the lives of Chilkat Valley residents thanks to her fixed, monthly donations to CVCF. Deb’s smaller, monthly donations will add up to a significant annual gift that continues to grow. The generosity of Deb and other CVCF donors allows us to make annual grants of more than $10,000 into our community. “I have been a donor to the Chilkat Valley Community Foundation since the first year. I love the community of Haines and want to give back. I believe CVCF is an excellent way to accomplish that goal. I was excited to learn recently that I could go to the website and donate on a monthly basis billed to my credit card. I like knowing that I am making monthly contributions that will benefit the community. For me, smaller monthly donations are easier than writing a check in larger amounts once or twice a year. I hope that anyone who wants to contribute will see this as an easy, convenient, and budget‐friendly way to give.” Want to impact the lives of Chilkat Valley residents with a recurring gift?
