Rural Riley County Community Foundation on the GMCF Community Hour Show Episode 331

We talk with Lori Roggi about how the Rural Riley County Community Foundation grows local giving across Leonardville, Keats, and Riley. We break down what Match Day is, what the funds support, and how small-town pride turns into long-term community impact.  • how the foundation started as a GMCF affiliate and why the service area stays flexible  • why rural philanthropy relies more on neighbors and less on large institutions  • what the 32 funds support including school programs and community projects  • how Match Day works with donor sponsors matching 27 funds  • event details at Riley County High School plus satellite lunch-hour locations  • broader needs that keep rural towns thriving including housing, child care, and support for older adults  • ways alumni and people who moved away can still give and stay connected  • how to donate online and why estate gifts matter for future generations  We can always use more if you're interested in participating. We'd love to have you. So just come and visit with one of us.  GMCF CFAs
