Our Family Tree
Learn about the generous donors who have established charitable funds through Stark Community Foundation.
A Supporting Foundation is a hassle-free alternative to a private foundation. It allows you to take an active approach to your giving, backed by professional staff who make it easy. This giving vehicle is unique because it gives you more control than a charitable fund and less administrative work than a private foundation.
With a Supporting Foundation, you select some of the board members, maintain personal involvement and support the causes and organizations you care about while enjoying the favorable tax treatment of a public charity through your affiliation with Stark Community Foundation. Leave the startup costs, grant administration and tax reporting to us.
Learn about our current Supporting Foundations: William and Minnette Goldsmith Foundation, Health Foundation of Greater Massillon, Lemmon Foundation and Henry and Louise Timken Foundation.
