COVID-19: Community Foundation and Philanthropy Center Update

March 16, 2020 By admin

    We join our local community and the rest of the world in finding our way during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. During this time, health and safety is our first priority.

    We are taking measures with care in mind while continuing to best serve our community, donors and other partners.

    Out of an abundance of caution, we are canceling any external meetings and events at the Philanthropy Center through Thursday, April 30, at which time we will evaluate based on the most current information
and guidance available. Unless conditions dictate, Community Foundation staff will be available on site during this time. You can continue to reach our team members at the Community Foundation, 315-782-7110, or via individual email addresses.

    A series of Community Foundation Grant Information Sessions scheduled for March 31, April 1, and April 2, have been postponed.

    While we are closely following public health guidelines and taking prescribed precautions, our work to serve the North Country must continue.

    We are grateful for your partnership and support. Together, we will meet the challenges before us for our region.

“Giving back is so important because it creates a culture that, the more we give, the better it is for everyone — those giving, and those receiving. That’s very, very important. We can always do more and we have to remember that.” — Donald Whitney, Adams Center

Don Whitney came from a family of givers. He believed that helping your community in any fashion is part of gratifying life. We are grateful for having known him and even more grateful that Don joined us in 2017 to participate in the Northern New York Community Podcast. His passing last weekend deeply saddens us. The fact that his story — in his own voice — is forever documented is a wonderful part of his permanent legacy that will inspire generations to come.

Learn more about what called Don to a life of service to his community and others in this 2017 episode from the second season of the Northern New York Community Podcast.
