Description
Administered by the First Community Foundation Partnership of Pennsylvania (FCFP), this fund supports programs and projects benefiting residents of the Borough of Lewisburg in Union County. Charles F. Lindig established it through a portion of his estate in appreciation of the opportunities Lewisburg afforded his family. It serves as a living memorial to his grandparents and parents.
The fund supports religious, charitable, educational, cultural, recreational, and economic welfare. Review priorities include attainable, measurable goals; financial strength and long-term self-sustainability, especially for start-up or seed funding; collaboration without duplicating other nonprofits’ efforts; and leveraging other funding sources or attracting matching funds.
