Giving — For the Love of Lenawee
At the Lenawee Community Foundation, we are your partner in charitable giving.

We’re here to make things easier for you and more meaningful for your clients, whether you’d like us quietly supporting behind the scenes or joining the conversation right at the table.

If you’re a financial planner, attorney, wealth advisor, or other trusted professional, you know how much your clients care about their families, their futures, and their community.

By opening the door to conversations about giving — both now and in their legacy planning — you help them achieve their goals while making a real difference close to home.

By partnering with the Lenawee Community Foundation, we’ll help them explore charitable options that align with their values and provide lasting impact, whether supporting local nonprofits, addressing community needs, or leaving a legacy that benefits Lenawee County for generations to come.

How We Can Support You

  • A helpful partner: You can give money directly to the foundation. It can be a little or a lot—every bit makes a difference for Lenawee County!
  • Working together: We’re glad to meet with you and your client, or just give you the tools to guide the conversation yourself.
  • Keeping trusted relationships: Clients can continue working with you as their financial advisor while also creating a charitable fund through the Foundation.
Together, we can help your clients bring health, happiness, and hope to our community — today and always.

Together, We Make Lenawee Stronger

Join us in supporting local nonprofits, students, and community initiatives that help our neighbors thrive.
