Ways To Give

Help us drive our mission forward.

Donate to The General Operating Fund

Your support of the General Operating Fund allows us to evolve and grow to meet the community’s needs. It also gives us the ability to provide consistent education and opportunities for our local nonprofits and fiscally sponsored organizations. Simply put, The General Operating Fund helps us drive our mission forward.

Become A Challenge For Charities Challenger

Become a Challenge for Charities Challenger. During this critical time of fundraising for local nonprofits, LCF works with the community at large—businesses, foundations, and the city—to secure funding that will act as a match to donations from individuals. The match historically has ranged between 35%-60%. Nonprofits can be matched up to $10,000 with this fund.

Become A Lander Legacy Member

We all want to leave a legacy behind. Planned gifts are an opportunity for you to leave a meaningful legacy in Lander—your home, your community. The Lander Legacy Society recognizes donors who have made a planned, or deferred gift, to LCF. Your support ensures our work will continue on, writing our shared future history of Lander.

Make An In-Kind Donation

 If you have a service that you would like to donate to the Lander Community Foundation, please let us know! We can discuss the best way to recognize your generosity and are always open to ideas.

To maximize our program dollars and staff time, we are appreciative of any donated work you can offer to us at a reduced rate.

RaJean Strubbe Fossen, Lander Assistant Mayor, former LCF board secretary

“In the last 6 years, I witnessed Lander donors grow into true Philanthropists.

No matter if their level of gifting was large or small, they are now more effective and timely with their donations. The LCF has done a great job of promoting philanthropy and encouraging effective giving in the Lander Community.”


We are bound by the shared interest in creating abundance in the ways that matter—in the ways that truly improve the quality of life for all people in our community.
