About the La Crescent community Foundation

In 1995, the City of La Crescent received several generous donations in honor of city councilman, Frank Kistler. Based on donor wishes, the city used the funds to support community projects. A committee of local citizens was formed by the City Council to manage and distribute the donations. That committee became the La Crescent Community Foundation, which is a 501(c)(3) organization
Since then, the La Crescent Community Foundation has funded a number of efforts to benefit the community, and continues its mission today through endowments and trusts from funds raised to provide grants to a number of initiatives.
