Although this Fund was officially established in 2012, it really dates back to 1994 when Elise Steiner established a Donor-Advised Fund with The Community Foundation and asked that we use what remained in the Fund after her death to endow her support of two of her favorite organizations, Red Cross and Senior Citizens (since renamed, FiftyForward). Elise passed away after a long illness and, thereafter, we fulfilled her wishes and honored her intentions by moving the balance in her Fund to this new endowment. Each year Elise’s favorite charities will receive a contribution in her name, and her legacy of caring will live on in perpetuity.
