Endowments

CAN Council continues to grow while providing innovative education and public awareness programs designed to help end child abuse in the community. As our programs and services grow, it is very important for us to ensure the legacy of the organization’s mission. For this reason, we have established endowment programs administered through the Saginaw Community Foundation for Saginaw County and the Bay Area Community Foundation for Bay County.

Saginaw County: Go to the Saginaw Community Foundation website and specify the Child Abuse and Neglect Council Endowment in the “Endowed Fund Name” field.

Bay County: Go to the Bay Area Community Foundation website then select the Nathan Weidner Children’s Advocacy Center Fund.

Alternatively, a check can be made payable to Saginaw Community Foundation or Bay Area Community Foundation and sent to the CAN Council, and we will see that the appropriate foundation receives it.
