Burl and Carmelita established this fund in 2001. Both Burl and Carmelita have been actively involved in the Foundation. Carmelita is one of the Foundation’s founding board members and Burl served on the Foundation’s Board of Directors for the first ten years that the Foundation was in operation. They wanted to establish a fund that would be flexible in meeting the needs of our community, both now in the future, so they started this unrestricted fund, which will issue grants for a variety of projects on an annual basis.
