Truman Heartland Community Foundation

Truman Heartland Community Foundation We do this by promoting and serving private giving for the public good. Donors are the difference at THCF.

Since our start in 1982, Truman Heartland Community Foundation has made it our mission to improve the lives of the people within Eastern Jackson County and surrounding communities. The mission of the Truman Heartland Community Foundation is to improve area communities by promoting and serving private giving for the public good. The difference their dollars make coupled with the foundation’s unders

tanding of needs in the community have combined to make that all-important difference we all seek to make. The approach THCF takes in working in the community can be as various as the needs to be served. The Community Foundation champions each cause, passion and charitable goal of our donor partners and ensures their dreams are realized through their charitable funds. Whether providing scholarships, establishing family finds, supporting faith communities, creating international programs, forming new charities, or raising support for existing charities, the Community’s Foundation has, or will, touch every life throughout our region. As one of the region’s most respected community foundations, THCF helps donors turn charitable dollars into major investments, creating a lasting legacy for generations to come.
