Annual Meeting Celebration: 40 Years of Impact

 

Thank You for Celebrating With Us!



We’re so grateful to everyone who joined us for the Annual Meeting! It was a joy to come together and celebrate the impact you've made over the last 40 years. Your support, presence, and passion for our community continue to inspire us.

If you weren’t able to attend, we’d still love to connect with you! Whether you want to catch up on highlights, learn more about current initiatives, or find ways to get involved, we’re just a call or click away.

 

News

 

Over the past four decades, the Henry County Community Foundation has focused on one central mission: to connect people who care with causes that matter. Through grantmaking, scholarships, and donor partnerships, we’ve helped make dreams possible and the community stronger.



But now we’re asking a new kind of question: What if we didn’t stop there?


 

Your Community Foundation Connection

 

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

 

A Lifelong Connection to Henry County


"For me, volunteering with the Foundation is about stewardship—giving back to the place that has given so much to my family”
