SUPPORTING SAGINAW
COMMUNITY FOUNDATION
There are So Many Ways to Get Involved
There are plenty of easy ways to get involved. Whether you’re able to give your time, resources or ongoing support, we’ll use your contribution to maximize our impact. Explore your options for assisting SCF now and see which form of support is possible for you.
How It Works
If you donate to an endowment fund or create your own endowment fund, the original amount you donate will always be with the Saginaw Community Foundation. It will be left untouched and will continue to grow as it gains interest and value through investments. However, a percentage of monies earned above and beyond the principal can be awarded in the form of grants or scholarships.
Give What Matters to You
The Saginaw Community Foundation administers a variety of funds. We can help you find a fund that matches your philanthropic interests or help you set-up a fund of your own. Check out our donor resources to learn more.
Give Now or Plan Ahead
You can choose to give now, or make plans to give in the future. The foundation accepts cash, checks, money orders and major credit cards. You also can give real estate, life insurance, fine art, retirement savings, appreciated securities, stocks, bonds and business assets.
Volunteering at SCF
There are plenty of ways to give back. The Foundation regularly has opportunities that call for volunteer help. Members of our community can get involved by:
- Serving on the SCF board

- Reviewing scholarship applications
