Want to help your loved ones?
Ensure you have an up to date will and power of attorney. This will help your loved ones by specifying your wishes on who gets your property, who takes care of your estate and names guardians for children or if you are unable to make decisions. As well, you can specify gifts to any organizations you would like to help. Please contact the Sussex Area Community Foundation if you have questions about providing a gift to the community.
Funds to Help the Community
You have many options to help the community with the Sussex Area Community Foundation. General donations will be placed in the Community Fund to help with grants for community projects or scholarships to local students. You can specify when donating if you would like donation to be placed in different funds such as the ‘Food Bank Fund’ which all donations are divided between The Sussex Sharing Club and the Salvation Army Sussex to help those who have food insecurity in the Sussex area. By giving you not only help the community, but you will also receive an income tax receipt. Please contact the SACF office if you have any questions.
