Title
The Piqua Community Foundation
Description
The Piqua Community Foundation encourages charitable giving to benefit the citizens of Piqua, and provides a variety of methods for donors to help fulfill their charitable giving wishes.
The Piqua Community Foundation was founded in November 1993 by original trustees Clifford R. Alexander, Jr., Lloyd B. Fry, and Michael P. Yannucci. Fifteen civic-minded citizens were elected to the original Board of Directors, and fund raising was begun to establish a fund to make grants to community organizations.
One hundred seventeen Charter Life Trustees of the Foundation contributed a minimum of $1000 each to establish the grant-making fund, which is now known as the Piqua Community Fund. At present, approximately two hundred people have become Life Trustees.
