What Our Community Loves About Us

  • It’s easy, and best of all, it’s forever.

    I encourage everyone to learn more about 3RCF and consider establishing their down personal legacy – it’s easy, and best of all, it’s forever.

  • Our money is being directed to local needs.

    Our fund at 3RCF means that our money is being directed to local needs, with low overhead. We know the funds are being well used and that 3RCF is taking seriously their fiduciary responsibilities. There is great need, and one person can’t do it all – 3 Rivers is our go-to place with trust.

    Vic & Julie Epperly

  • 3RCF has earned our trust.

    We work very hard for our money, and we don’t want it wasted. To be able to watch what you donated grow and improve live in our community is deeply satisfying. 3RCF has earned our trust.

    Rella Reimann (1944-2022)

  • Truly a forever gift.

    A community foundation is the easiest and most reliable way of meeting charitable estate planning goals. Goals can be met and gifts can be spread forever, instead of a single gift. Truly a forever gift.

    Tim Anderson

  • I have total confidence in their process.

    3RCF is extremely cautious and responsible in selecting and awarding each and every grant. I have total confidence in their process.

  • We are thrilled to grow the WHWFTC endowment with 3RCF

    We are thrilled to grow the WHWFTC endowment with 3RCF. The legacy it is creating for the future of our organization and the agencies we support is immeasurable.

    Alysia Johnson, Executive Coordinator, Women Helping Women Foundation

  • Ability to contribute to the charities I favored.

    I was pleased to be able to set up a donor-advised endowment with 3RCF as a memorial to my husband, to be able to contribute to the charities I favored, and to leave a trust that was earning for charity after I am no longer here.

    Deena Smith

  • I can rely on 3RCF’s oversight and input.

    I choose to partner with 3RCF because the organization allows me to create a legacy in memory of my daughter, Madison Taylor (Dec 1992 – Mar 2001). I can rely on 3RCF’s oversight and input in making the Madison Taylor Fund an impactful, meaningful, and valuable contributor to our local children.
