Donation Update

We have recently received two donations to the Tyler Area Community Foundation's Endowment fund. With these two donations, the endowment fund is now within $3,500 of reaching the $25,000 matching grant from the Southwest Initiative Foundation. We have until the end of 2010 to raise the remaining $3,500. The two donations to the endowment fund came from Maynards and Clair and Deanna Drake.

We also received a very generous donation from Jerry and Rickie Bly to the golf course project fund. To date $221,525 has been raised for the clubhouse remodel project.

Last week, Tyler Golf Club Chair Gary Heffele let the stag night crowd know that it still needs up to $100,000 to finish the project without taking on additional debt at the golf course. The golf course project fund can stay open for an additional 12 months to take in additional donations. If you haven't had a chance to get out to look at the project, please take the time to go out and see what an asset this will be to the community of Tyler and the surrounding areas.

If you would like to donate to the endowment fund or the project fund, you can send your check to TACF, PO Box 239, Tyler, MN 56178 and write a note on the check indicating endowment fund or project fund.
