Annual Fund

 


What drew you toHudson?  What makes Hudson …Hudson?  From its schools to its historic richness,Hudsonis a community that shines.  The Hudson Community Foundation (HCF) exists to continue this tradition.

 Deeply entrenched in the community, HCF identifies needs, aggregates donations, and then grants 100 percent of those gifts to organizations best suited to meet those needs. 

HCF has helped to seed, start, guide, and fund numerous organizations that makeHudsongreat – for example: Hudson Community First, Taste of Hudson, Hudson in Bloom and Farmers Market. By bringing these organizations under our 501(c)(3) status, we help them avoid high start-up costs and lengthy processes so they can make a difference in our community faster.

 In supporting Hudsonorganizations, HCF has four main focus areas:

 Youth, Education and Recreation – supporting Safe Routes Hudson, Student Support Fund, and Coalition for Children’s Mental Health in our high school

 Social Services – such as Hattie Larlham,Hudson Job Search,Hudson Coalition of Habitat for Humanity

 Arts and Culture – including Music from theWestern Reserve, Hudson Bandstand, and Hudson Players Guild

 Historical and Environmental Preservation – helping to fund Case-Barlow Farm, Veterans Memorial Garden, and Western Reserve Land Conservancy

Civic leadership has propelled Hudson’s character.   Volunteer commitment and involvement of residents and local merchants, however, have made Hudsonspecial.   In this time of need, we hope you will consider making a gift.  100% of your donation goes back into the community and you can direct it to a specific area or organization if you wish.  HCF will place a full page ad the in the Hudson Hub listing all donations greater than or equal to $500.  Donations greater than or equal to $1,000 will include company logos.

 What drew you toHudson?  If it was the uniqueness of our community, I hope you will consider supporting us. 

Yes, I want to support HCF and empower the organizations and individuals working to make our community better.
