Honoring the legacy of a woman who helped shape the Community Foundation’s history.
The first person to lead what is now Fremont Area Community Foundation was a tenacious teacher named Bessie Slautterback. Intelligent and determined, Bessie led the Community Foundation for over two decades. She championed arts, education, health, and housing and worked tirelessly to build community support.
To honor the legacy of giving Bessie Slautterback left behind, the Community Foundation created the Slautterback Legacy Society. This special group of people have said “count me in!” by including the Community Foundation in their will or estate plan.
Join the Society
If you have included the Community Foundation in your estate plan and are not a recognized Slautterback Legacy Society member, please contact our philanthropic services staff.
