Medfield Foundation Legacy Fund received a $100,000 matching gift challenge

The Medfield Foundation Legacy Fund has received a $100,000 challenge gift from an anonymous donor, that will match all other gifts made to the Legacy Fund before the end of the year. Your gift will not only be doubled, but can be put to work in your community through the grant making in 2022.

The 2021 Legacy Fund round of grants were just announced. The Legacy Fund received ten proposals requesting a total of $62,000 in grant money, and after careful consideration, the MFi Legacy Fund awarded $28,200 in grants to 4 groups:

Medfield Outreach

Peak House Heritage Center

Sustainable Medfield

Friends of the MHS Theatre Society

The MFi Legacy Fund looks forward to seeing the results of the great work these groups will do for our community. The MFi also looks forward to building a larger endowment to allow its grants program to fulfil more of the needs presented to the Medfield Foundation Legacy Fund.

Donate by year end to have your donation doubled, either on-line at www.MedfieldFoundation.org/legacy-fund or send a check to the Medfield Foundation, 459 Main Street, Medfield, MA 02052.

ANGEL RUN

Over 1300 participated in the Angel Run, the annual family friendly holiday fun run, that is a Medfield Foundation initiative held on the first Sunday in December. Proceeds raised assist Medfield families in need, and all participants are guaranteed an enjoyable, festive time. These were the refreshments before the arrival of the runners.

HOLIDAY STROLL

Large crowds attended the annual Holiday Stroll sponsored by the Cultural Alliance of Medfield on Friday night. Ron Gustavson was again in charge of the ice sculpture for CAM, and reported that the ice sculpture this year was finished in record time.
