Your Community Foundation Connection

In honor of the Henry County Community Foundation’s 40^th anniversary, we are sharing throwback stories of impact and donor and volunteer spotlights.

A Heart for Impact in the Community

"I enjoy being part of an organization that has such a great impact on our community. I feel honored to serve on the Foundation Board and to be able to give a little back to our community.”

Full Story Here

Meet Eliza Madden, a young woman whose life was forever changed by a scholarship, thanks to a thoughtful estate plan. Eliza’s journey from heartbreak to healing, and ultimately to becoming a NICU nurse, is a powerful reminder that the decision to support a cause you care about through a planned gift can impact lives for generations.
