Endowment Fund

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. Visit the Community Foundation of the Great River Bend website at:
