“What exactly do you do at the Community Foundation?”

Joyce Whitfield gets that question a lot, and the answer might surprise you. From connecting donors to causes they care about, to helping nonprofits find funding, to managing scholarships that impact hundreds of students each year, the work of the Hot Springs Area Community Foundation touches lives across our community in meaningful ways.

In this article, Joyce shares a behind-the-scenes look at the heart behind the mission, including partnerships like our work with the Oaklawn Foundation and why making a difference locally is the greatest reward of all.

Team work! For most of the teens in the group that had never wrapped a package before, this group learned fast that gift bags weren’t the only way to handle 100+ toys for 1-12 year olds. The video provided by the group’s President, demostrating “how to wrap a gift” proved helpful! Youth Advisory Council (YAC) members sponsored by Leadership Hot Springs and the Hot Springs Area Community Foundation served their community by not only wrapping but distributed the toys today at the SugarPlum Toy Distribution event as one of their annual service projects. Thank you, YAC members!
