About the Martin County Community Foundation
The Martin County Community Foundation (MCCF) was founded in 2004 and is led by a local volunteer advisory board that helps build community assets by creating permanent endowments, making grants, and leveraging leadership and partnerships – all for the benefit of Martin County.
The MCCF board advises the Martin County Community Fund, the unrestricted community grantmaking fund, to support local needs. The competitive grants program is held annually.
Advisory board members live and work in Martin County, positioning them to strategically leverage resources, meet local needs and access opportunities. In addition to Sproat, board members include Chase Conner (vice president), Susan Dunlow (secretary/treasurer), Loyall Corey, Kasey Fletcher, Leslie W. Johnson, Jerry McCrary, Lucia Peel, Amy Swain and Nancy Winslow.
The MCCF makes it easy to support your community. You can open an endowment for your favorite cause at any time or contribute to an existing fund in any amount. Tax-deductible contributions, made payable to the Martin County Community Foundation, can be mailed to the North Carolina Community Foundation, 3737 Glenwood Ave., Suite 460, Raleigh, NC 27612. Contributions can also be made online at nccommunityfoundation.org/Martin.
