Message from our Executive DirectorI am pleased to share the Schuylkill Area Community Foundation 2019 AnnualReport with our donors and friends. Even though we are in the midst of aworldwide pandemic, we wish to share with you some highlights of 2019.
We continue to build a better tomorrow, one block at a time. In 2019, SACFtechnology was updated, which included a new server, new desktop computers,Wi-Fi access, updated email addresses, updates to our eGrant applicationsystem, and changes to our paper scholarship applications which include fillablePDFs. We continue to review our processes and procedures to find efficienciesand opportunities to reduce our operational budget, which enables us to provideadditional financial support for our Schuylkill County community.
In 2019, SACF provided $843,153.43 in grants, graduation awards, andscholarships to our Schuylkill County nonprofits and students. The positive impact thatour organizations and students are making on our community is widespread and diverse.
Schuylkill County nonprofits continue to implement and present projects andprograms to better our community. For example, Schuylkill County’s VISIONpartnered with the North Schuylkill School District to build and plant gardens at theelementary school for fourth grade students to learn the life cycle and benefits offresh fruits and vegetables. Downtown Shenandoah Inc. presented a Mariachi bandduring their 21st Annual Heritage Day Festival. Our local public libraries purchasednew large print books, and created and presented Summer Reading Programs forour children. With grant assistance, local performing art groups some of which areSchuylkill Free Shakespeare, Gabriel Chamber Ensemble, Ashland Area CommunityChoir, Schuylkill Choral Society, Inc., and Lift Your Spirits Performing Arts, presenteda wide range of musical and cultural events.
The Charles Werner Endowment Fund continues to support the children of the PineGrove area, through support of the Pine Grove Community Church student ministryand library program, as well as offering free swim days through the TremontCommunity Organization.
The graduating seniors of our county continue to receive scholarships and graduationawards due to the generosity and forethought of others. The students continue toaccomplish amazing things and are bringing their education and experience backto Schuylkill County.
