Your gift to the Sanilac County Community Foundation (SCCF) can establish a fund to benefit what you care about most. There are many ways that we can work with you to establish a fund. We invite you to talk with our Executive Director, Melissa Anderson, about how we can best work with you to meet your charitable goals and interests.
