Bowling Green Community Foundation records
Collection
Identifier: MS-1205
Collection Organization
The collection of the Bowling Green Community Foundation begins with its founding in 1994. The materials within the collection chart the early beginnings of the Foundation and its development into a fully-fledged funding organization. Later documents illustrate the day-to-day actions of running a successful foundation.
The items from the first seventeen years of operation—meeting minutes, by-laws, correspondence, reports, and Deeds of Gift—show how the Foundation grew from a desire to fulfil a need within the community. These early records can be helpful to researchers and can also benefit those who are interested in working in the non-profit sector.
