Building for the Future

​Dear Friends of Beckley Area Foundation: 

Beckley Area Foundation has relocated to 1210 South Kanawha St. in Beckley in the very near future. This move reinforces BAF’s long-term commitment to the area.

The Carter Family Foundation’s generosity made this vision become a reality when their board made the unanimous decision to award a grant to BAF for the purchase of the building. The move to a new permanent, central location will heighten the foundation’s visibility and encourage more community participation.

The new building will serve as a hub for charitable collaboration:

• The space will be designed to provide a unique opportunity to bring  individuals, families and businesses to philanthropy, and help fulfill their philanthropic goals.
•  It will serve as a place to support non-profit partners; a place to meet, think and plan.
• A place where we work toward one common goal – to improve the lives of friends and neighbors in Raleigh County and the surrounding area.

As BAF embarks on this historic journey, you are invited to contribute to the next chapter in BAF’s “Building for the Future” campaign. The campaign’s $350,000 goal is designed to support the building renovation costs. Numerous giving levels exist to show your support including several naming opportunities. 

Can we count on your donation to support BAF's long-term commitment to the area? Together, we are "Building for the Future."
 
With Appreciation,

Dena Cushman
Executive Director
