The Seward Community Foundation Steering Committee is excited to announce that, due to incredible community support, we have reached our first goal. We have successfully raised $25,000 by our deadline of June 30, 2008 and have received the $50,000 match from the Rasmuson Foundation and have secured $5,000 for community grants. We are well on our way to achieving our next goal of raising $25,000 by June 30, 2009 and securing another $50,000 match from Rasmuson Foundation. Our next step is establishing a local board. For more information, contact Chellie Skoog at 362-7974 or Margaret Anderson at 224-5571. Donations may be mailed to SCF, PO Box 933, Seward, AK 99664.
