Community Foundation and Philanthropy Center Update

April 3, 2020 By admin

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

    Our work to serve you, our donors, partners and North Country communities, continues during this time without interruption. Community Foundation staff are working off site, but remain readily accessible via individual email addresses. Our office phones are checked several times each day and messages forwarded to staff. You may call our main line — 315-782-7110 — to leave a message for Community Foundation team members and they will return your call as soon as possible.

    Our commitment to serve you remains as strong as it is during more routine times.

    We have taken measures with care in mind while continuing to best serve our community, donors and other partners. Out of an abundance of caution, we have canceled all external meetings and events at the Philanthropy Center until public health conditions safely permit.

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