Update: Dexter Community Fund Challenge Match Campaign

The Dexter Community Fund (DCF) recently announced that they are 1/3 of the way towards their goal of raising $100,000. The $100,000 Challenge Match Campaign kicked off in October and will run until Dec. 31, 2019. Generous supporters have already contributed $32,000 towards the$100,000 goal. They need your help to raise $68,000 more by the end of the year.  Now through Dec. 31, your donation will have double the impact!

DCF invites all community members to consider making a year-end gift to the Dexter Community Fund. As you celebrate the holiday season, give a gift that will keep on giving. By donating today, your donation will go twice as far!
