In 2016 Scott Community Foundation established a Good Neighbor Program for the Scott Community. The Good Neighbor Program works in coordination with the Scott County Ministerial Alliance and has two parts.
1. To help provide funds to families and individuals who need food, clothes, and services due to a medical, financial, catastrophic event, or economic hardship. This is done directly through the Ministerial Alliance.
2. A local business can set up a fund within the Good Neighbor Fund. The program is funded through employee contributions, corporate philanthropic dollars, or a combination of the two. Employees of that business who face natural disasters, life threatening or serious injury, catastrophic circumstance, or death of an employee or employee dependents may be eligible to apply.

we can do so much.”

The William Carpenter 4-H Foundation has a long tradition of benefiting Scott County 4-H Youth. In 2015 the 4-H Foundation decided to diversify their assets as another method to continue to benefit the 4-H Youth by starting a fund with $50,000 through the Scott Community Foundation.
The William Carpenter 4-H Foundation is truly one of a kind. It has created a wealth of opportunity for Scott County 4-H’ers including grants
for members to attend camps and leadership conferences. The William Carpenter 4-H Foundation has also been instrumental in the construction
of facilities at the Scott County Fairgrounds including the William Carpenter 4-H Building and the Scott County Indoor Arena.
The William Carpenter 4-H Foundation was incorporated in 1955. It’s assets coming from a bequeath made from William and Zella Carpenter,
consisted of eight quarters of farm ground. Resources from the farm are allocated according to the judgement of the seven members of
the William Carpenter Foundation Board of Directors to best meet the needs and advance the interests of 4-H Club and older youth work of the Agricultural Extension Service of Scott County. The 4-H motto is “to make
the best better” and William and Zella Carpenter have surely accomplished that for the 4-H’ers of Scott County.
