Endowment Fund
Established
Looking to the future, The Bix
Society has established an Endowment Fund
through the Community Foundation of the Great River Bend.
This
was made possible through Society donations, and the generosity
of several donors. Now, we seek contributions to build on the
Fund so it will eventually provide on-going revenue. Read more
about it on our news page. Also, you
