GCF 2026 Match Campaign
November 5th – December 5th

This fall, the Goessel Community Foundation (GCF) is working to raise $200,000 to unlock a generous $100,000 matching opportunity from the Patterson Family Foundation (PFF). Together, we have the opportunity to generate $300,000!

Beginning November 5, every dollar donated to an eligible GCF fund* will receive a 25% match until we reach our $200,000 goal or the campaign concludes on December 5.

These gifts will help support local nonprofits, provide scholarships for area students, and fund projects that enhance the quality of life in Goessel—creating lasting impact and helping transform our community by making a difference right here at home.

*Donations to donor advised funds cannot be matched

Giving Back to Goessel: The concept is simple: By remembering your community in your legacy — by leaving just 5% of your estate to your local community foundation — you will help ensure your community’s future.

Donate to the Goessel Impact Fund


Across America rural communities face big challenges as economies change, populations shift, and government resources dramatically decline. Your Goessel Community Foundation offers a solution – a vehicle to help preserve our community’s existing wealth.

Goessel Community Foundation was founded in 2010 by a group of dedicated Goessel citizens to assist in providing resources for a broad range of existing and future charitable needs in the Goessel, Kansas area. The mission of the Goessel Community Foundation is to enhance the quality of educational, cultural, civic and economic life in Goessel both today and in the future by:

  • Enabling donors to fulfill their charitable interests
  • Building a permanent endowment
  • Facilitating prudent management and care of funds
  • Meeting community needs through grants, awards, and  scholarships.
