The Richland County Community Foundation began with the Horizons Leadership group in 2006.  Through a community assessment the need for a broad charitable endowment and grant making fund was recognized.  The foundation was officially set up with the Montana Community Foundation in December of 2008.

We are currently looking for dedicated board members to serve.  If you, or someone you know is interested please contact Stacey Schmitt or Ray Trumpower.

Donations can be sent to PO Box 752 in Sidney, MT 59270 or they can be dropped off at the Richland County Health Department with Stacey Schmitt.

Information on the upcoming grant cycle will be made available after the board approves the grant application process.

There will be an open house to welcome all new board members in late January or early February.
