Ridgway Borough Charitable Fund

This special fund was designated by it donor, Sara-Jane Stackpole, to benefit the non profit agencies that serve Ridgway Borough residents. It was Sara-Jane’s wish that the Foundation appoint an Advisory Board of five individuals to represent various groups of people residing in the Borough of Ridgway.

The Borough of Ridgway Charitable Fund’s purpose is to provide financial support to those non-profit organizations whose application reflects a purpose or project that will benefit the residents of the Borough of Ridgway. Board members from this Advisory Board will then make grant recommendations to the Foundation’s Board of Directors for their review and consideration.

Awards average $3,000 to $5,000 but have gone as high as $10,000.
