Sample Language for Gifts

When you decide to make a gift to the Noble County Community Foundation through your will or trust agreement, you can choose to benefit:

  • the entire community
  • a specific cause
  • a certain program or organization
  • a scholarship fund
  • causes successor advisors care about

The Foundation will oversee your gift and forever work to insure the funds are used as you intend. If a charity closes its doors or dramatically changes its program, the Foundation will work to carry on your intentions.

We want to recognize you for your generosity during your lifetime. If possible, please provide us with a copy of the completed will so we can include you in our annual appreciation events.

We are always available to answer questions you may have about the Foundation and its work. Call us at 260-894-3335.
