Mission: The Redwater Community Foundation (RCF) provides funds for community needs and projects within McCone County and the surrounding area. 

Vision: To help maintain healthy, safe and economically sustainable communities that are vibrant places to work, live and play. 

What is RCF: It is a permanent fund, known as an endowment from which the principal can never be spent.  Earnings from the endowment will be used every year to help meet the needs of our entire community.

What RCF supports: Projects that provide a direct benefit to local area residents, that address important unmet needs, and that receive backing from the community.  A project must be sponsored by an eligible charitable (501c3) or governmental entity.  For grant applications, please contact one of the board members.

       
By contributing to the RCF, you have ensured that your gift will grow and continue to give every year to the community.  It can be looked at as an annual gift that will continue to give forever.  Anything of value can be given to the RCF and there are many tax benefits that a donor can receive.  The Redwater Community Foundation is affiliated with the Montana Community Foundation (www.mtcf.org/), which has professional staff to help donors with specific questions.

For any questions, for a grant application, or to donate please contact one of the board members: Lindy Wright, Greg Rolandson, Jiggs Wolf, Emily Guldborg, and/or Tod Kasten (406-485-3374).

We received $2,500 in grant funding from the Montana Community Foundation to be used to help renovate and revitalize the Town of Circle’s municipal park.
