About.

Established in 2016

In November 2016, the GROW Decatur County Foundation Fund was established through utilizing a matching campaign initiative offered through the Dane G. Hansen Foundation.  Incoming donations into this endowment fund were matched $1 for $1 up to $50,000.  The Decatur County communities, exceeded their portion of the incoming contributions by more than double; raising approximately $115,000 prior to adding in the $50,000 match.  In subsequent years, local support came through and the fund has since passed the $490,000 mark!

Our Goal

GROW Decatur County Foundation strives to improve and enhance the lives of all Decatur County residents. In the last five years GROW has granted over half a million dollars to local community organizations and projects. Each of these grants furthers the goal of making Decatur County an inviting place to live and visit.

Serving on the GROW board goes back to my roots. My roots were put down in Decatur County the day I was born and I never pulled them up. ​
