Welcome to the Manhasset Community Fund
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Just after the end of World War II the Manhasset Community Fund was born. The oldest records of the Fund are from the Manhasset Branch of the "National War Fund" suggesting that with coming of peace, the community's giving turned from war support to helping local charities. Yes, in 1946 the first Manhasset Community Fund campaign began and raised a then-staggering $38,000 in just one month . . . remember a ride on a NYC subway cost just a nickel.
