📋 It’s National Estate Planning Awareness Week!

Estate planning isn’t just about deciding what happens to your assets—it’s an opportunity to think about what matters most to you and the legacy you want to leave behind.

For many, that includes supporting the causes and organizations that make a difference in our community. A charitable gift in your estate plan can create a lasting impact for Johnson County for generations to come.

At the Johnson County Community Foundation, we’re here to help you explore ways to make philanthropy part of your legacy. Because your generosity can live on long after you’re gone.

❤️ Grants in Action: Humane Society of Johnson County

In 2024, the Humane Society of Johnson County received a $250,000 matching grant through JCCF’s Capital and Capacity Building Community Projects Matching Cycle to help open a full-service, high-volume, low-cost spay/neuter clinic right here in Johnson County.

Now, the clinic is opening in November or December of this year! 🎉

Enjoy these photos capturing the journey from groundbreaking to construction as this exciting project comes to life. We’re proud to support initiatives that make a lasting difference in our community and improve the lives of pets and their people.
