Don and Barbara Carrig, longtime residents of Reedsburg, have launched a new non-profit foundation, The Carrig Community Fund, Inc. for the benefit of Reedsburg’s children.
The Carrigs have a long history of contributing to projects that benefit Reedsburg Area youth. Their contributions include the following:
Land to build the Reedsburg Area School District Office
Funds towards wellness at Reedsburg Area Medical Center
Initial funds to get the Boys & Girls Club Center on Vine Street up and running
A recent donation to complete the furnishings in the newly built Teen Center
An ongoing system of donations of the First Tee Program at the Reedsburg County Club
Many scholarships received over the years by Reedsburg Area High School graduates.
The Carrigs’ initial contributions to The Carrig Community Foundation, Inc. was $1 million, with the intention that the earnings on these funds will be used for beneficiary entities for years to come. The Carrig Community Foundation, Inc. will be accepting donations from all members of the community in the near future. For the first five years of the Fund, the Carrigs will donate all administrative costs. Every dollar donated is used for benevolence.
