Published in the Frederick News Post on June 20, 2022: Yesterday was Father’s Day – a day traditionally meant to honor fathers and shine a light on the importance of an involved dad in child rearing. Hopefully fathers across Frederick are feeling the love. Over the years, donors have turned to the Community Foundation to help create lasting memorials to their fathers.

The Community Foundation of Frederick County has been doing important work in the community for more than three decades – building partnerships, funding grants to nonprofits, awarding scholarships. But if you peel back the layers, what is really at the heart of the work done in a community foundation, is love.
