Our mission is to foster private giving, strengthen service providers and improve conditions of our communities. To these ends, the Foundation will promote endowment building, community, grantmaking, organizational collaboration, and public leadership for the benefit of Hancock County.
The Hancock County Foundation was formed in 2005 as an affiliate of the Greater Des Moines Community Foundation. The founding members of the organization had a vision to ensure that our communities’ charitable programs were supported now and in the future. We work together with many individuals, families, businesses, and organizations to establish endowment funds that will provide grant awards for years to come.
The Hancock County Foundation is governed by a local board of directors who are active in their respective community.
Howard Parrott, Garner – President Kathy Brown, Woden – Vice President Dixie Revland, Goodell – Secretary Wendell Davison; Garner - Treasurer Dave Abele, Klemme - Director Steve Hanna, Crystal Lake - Director Jay Gourley, Corwith - Director Sharon Gourley, Corwith - Director Ray Bassett, Kanawha - Director Rob Willms, Britt - Director James Hill, Garner (Ex-Officio) Phil Garland, Garner (Ex-Officio)
