Macon County Legacy Group

Macon County Legacy brings professionals and nonprofits together to help lift up Macon County residents.

The two entities within the Macon County Legacy group — professionals and nonprofit organizations — work together with The Community Foundation of Macon County to help donors fulfill their desires to help fund and support areas of need in our community.

Professional Members

Professional members have the opportunity to connect with donors and utilize The Community Foundation’s vast resources. They advise donors on identifying resources and opportunities for charitable giving and endowments.

Nonprofit Members

There are many resources available to MCL nonprofit members. In addition to a growing list of benefits, member organizations may also apply for microgrants to help offset the costs of training and conferences for staff and/or board members.

Members also are given the opportunity to participate in educational luncheons throughout the year. They are recognized in promotional materials and through our annual marketing campaigns.

Nonprofit members also are highlighted on the Foundation's website and are invited to create wish lists to showcase current needs to potential donors.

Membership Fees

The annual fee for being a part of the Macon County Legacy Group is $200 which gets you invaluable lifelong connections. (This fee was waived in 2021 and 2022 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.)
