Potter County matching challenge to end soon
SAYRE — Time is running out to make twice the impact in Potter County. The Community Foundation for the Twin Tiers (CFTT) urges donors to act before Sept. 22 to take advantage of a $10,000 dollar-for-dollar match for gifts to the Potter County Community Impact Fund.
The challenge, generously sponsored by longtime Potter County resident and philanthropist Wanda Shirk, aims to strengthen local nonprofits and meet the county’s most urgent needs. Every donation made to the Potter County Community Impact Fund during the match period will be doubled, turning $50 into $100, or $500 into $1,000. These matched donations can help support a wide range of vital community services in Potter County, including basic needs and crisis relief, healthcare, youth and education programs, and community and economic development.
Potter County Impact Funds, representatives said, also make it possible to support vulnerable populations, enhance public safety, promote arts and culture, and protect the environment and animal welfare, providing fast, flexible aid wherever it’s needed most. CFTT encourages local residents, businesses and supporters near and far to take advantage of this limited-time match opportunity by donating before the Sept. 22 deadline to double their impact in Potter County.
