Halstead CF Match Month

HCF Match Month Kicks Off July 10, 2026!

This summer, the Halstead Community Foundation (HCF) is working to raise $200,000 to unlock a generous $100,000 matching opportunity from the Patterson Family Foundation (PFF). That means we have the potential to raise $300,000 to further our mission of transforming the Halstead community by making a difference right here at home!

Starting July 10, every dollar given to a HCF fund* will be matched at 25% until we reach our $200,000 goal or until the campaign ends August 10, helping us support local nonprofit organizations, award scholarships to area students and invest in projects that make Halstead stronger and more vibrant (*donations to donor advised funds cannot be matched). Matching funds will be awarded on a first-come, first-served basis, ensuring gifts receive the full available match.

The remaining PFF matching dollars will support HCF’s Impact Fund, used to make grants to community organizations and projects, and the HCF Operating Endowment, helping ensure we can serve Halstead well into the future.

HCF we will kick off our match month with a festive 12 Days of Christmas in July. From July 10-21, we invite you to join in a fun-filled mix of fundraising efforts and free community events designed to bring everyone together and spread some mid-year cheer!
