Allegany County Area Foundation Announces Donor Designated Gift to the Cuba Historical Society

The Allegany County Area Foundation, a not-for-profit organization which seeks to encourage educational, social, cultural and civic projects benefiting the residents of Allegany County, New York, is pleased to announce a non-endowed donor designated gift  to the Cuba Historical Society. This grant is made possible due to Ruth and John Doyle’s generosity who requested their donation be designated for the Cuba Historical Society.

The “biggest little museum in Allegany County”, says Mary and Jack Nease, curators, of the Historical Society, will use the grant for their general operating expenses. These include operating a museum and information center and offering help to the extended community in genealogy research and other historical matters. This grant will enable the Historical Society to further its contribution to the community and to promote education and historical research here in Allegany County. The Foundation is pleased to support this organization.

If you would like to make a difference in your community by making a gift to a non-profit agency or  leaving a legacy by establishing your own endowment fund, contact the Allegany County Area Foundation today. The Foundation welcomes tax-deductible gifts in any amount, including memorials to friends and loved ones. County residents are encouraged to remember the Foundation in their wills by making a specific bequest. In the 2013-14 fiscal year the Foundation will disburse monies in the form of scholarships to county students and grants to local not-for-profit agencies that benefit all residents of Allegany County.
