Help Secure Our Future
Endowment Funds
The Milwaukie Community Center Foundation have established several Endowment Funds which are invested and never spent. The proceeds from the Endowment Funds are used solely to support the Milwaukie Community Center and are key to keeping the doors open in the future.
All gifts received in honor of friends or family members are added to the Milwaukie Community Center Endowment Fund. In addition, $2,000 from Thursday evening Bingo proceeds are dedicated to the Endowment Fund each year. The Foundation of the Milwaukie Community Center also receive bequests and other gifts specifically intended to build these funds.

The Milwaukie Community Center Fund – supporting programs and services at the Center

The Scholarship Fund – helps fund class registration fees for people in need
The Fran Whitehead Rose Garden Fund – established to support the maintenance of the Sara Hite Memorial Rose Garden
