A tremendous 50th anniversary campaign and celebration, coupled with
brand new initiatives like the Top 25 Under 25, helped to generate our
largest and most diverse year of giving. Additionally, this giving combined
with the highest year-over-year portfolio growth has bolstered our assets
beyond $60M, also a record mark for the Foundation. These results
should truly give all Foundation constituents a high level of confidence
and excitement that we are executing our mission and our community
impact to Washington County will be unmatched in the years to come.”
