Family Legacy Funds

Your Family. Your Community. A Fund for the Future.

A Family Legacy Fund is a permanent way for you and your family to support Hendricks County for generations to come.

Family Legacy Funds are unrestricted endowment funds at HCCF. Your gift is invested for the future, and grants from the fund are made each year to address changing needs and opportunities throughout Hendricks County. Because the fund is unrestricted, it can continue responding to our community even as the issues we face change over time.

Your fund also becomes part of something larger. HCCF’s Family Legacy Funds work together with other unrestricted charitable resources through Stronger Together, allowing the generosity of many individuals and families to support local nonprofits and important work throughout our community.

And while the grants and needs will change over the years, your fund—and the name you choose for it—will remain a permanent part of that work.

Make Your Gift Go Further

For a limited time, gifts to Family Legacy Funds are eligible for a 3:1 match through Lilly Endowment’s GIFT IX initiative and additional matching support. For every $1 contributed, another $3 is added, turning a $5,000 gift into $20,000 for Hendricks County.

You can establish a new Family Legacy Fund or contribute to an existing one.
