Our Yates Community Endowment today established a Disaster Relief Fund at Rochester Area Community Foundation to help their neighbors impacted by last week’s floods. A family foundation in Ohio, which helped to launch the Yates Community Endowment in 2011, is offering a challenge grant that will match all donations to the fund, dollar for dollar, up to $15,000. All contributions to this fund will be directed to the Keuka Housing Council.Please refer to this corrected press release to reflect the challenge grant is $15,000 and not $150,000.A direct link for online contributions is www.racf.org/HelpYates.
