Kendall County Endowment Fund

Established 2007

This fund provides grants to non-profit organizations that are located within Kendall County or that provide significant support to the residents of Kendall County.

The fund was originally administered by the Kendall County Foundation.

In 2007, the Kendall County Foundation transferred its assets to the Community Foundation.

The Kendall County Endowment Fund was established as a permanent resource to honor the citizens of Kendall County.

Pictured here is the historic Kendall County Courthouse. Built in 1864, it served the residents of Kendall County until 1998.

As a first-generation college student from a low-income family, I was worried about how I was going to pay for books and supplies. This scholarship will allow me to focus more on my studies instead of worrying about how to afford college. I am working to not only create opportunities for myself but to motivate future generations. Thank you so much for helping me along this journey!

We chose the Community Foundation because of its reputation. It’s well known, established and we can trust them to do the job for us.

Thank you very much for supporting my college education for these four years. I will never be able to repay you for the opportunity that this scholarship has given to me.

A community foundation is a donor-driven organization that helps donors custom-design funds that reflect their charitable interests. Through the years, grants from these funds have made a significant impact on our local communities.

…you can always start small, even $25 can make a difference. Remember we can’t take our money with us. Even if it’s just your gift of time. Volunteer and get involved.
