The Community Foundation for Cloud County Announces Rebrand

CONCORDIA, Kan.—The Community Foundation for Cloud County announced today that it has completed a major rebranding. Since 2002, the Community Foundation has served the communities of Cloud County through its mission of helping people invest in a meaningful way to make a difference in the community by building permanent endowment funds and meeting charitable needs.

The Community Foundation for Cloud County is an affiliate of the Greater Salina Community Foundation and was formed to serve as a catalyst for contributions for the long-term benefit of the community.

“Bob Steimel and a group of visionary community members started the foundation to build a legacy of charitable giving in Cloud County,” said Ashley Hutchinson, Board Secretary. “Twenty years later, the foundation has $10 million dollars in endowed assets and the impact of grantmaking can be seen in every community we serve.”

Since then, it has grown to over $10.9 million in assets and has awarded over $3.9 million in grants and scholarships on behalf of its donors.

To continue this positive momentum, the Community Foundation wanted a logo that represents its commitment to its donors and community. Like the infinity sign that the new logo was derived from, the Community Foundation for Cloud County is here forever to help you impact today and transform tomorrow.

Monte Wentz, Board Chairperson said, “As we move into the next twenty years, we hope the new logo will help the Foundation remain in peoples’ mind as they plan their gifts that will benefit the communities they have called home.”

Although the Community Foundation has a new look, its mission and services remain the same—to help people make a difference by connecting donors and nonprofits, providing personalized services and philanthropic expertise, serving as a charitable savings account, and establishing permanent endowed funds to create a lasting legacy.
