Our Partnership with the Community Foundation for Western Iowa
The Community Foundation for Western Iowa is a tax-exempt public charity, 501(c)(3), that serves those who share a common interest in improving the quality of life in western Iowa.
Through the Community Foundation for Western Iowa, individuals, families, businesses, and organizations can create permanent charitable funds that help their region meet the challenges of changing times. The foundation invests and administers these charitable funds, such as the Southwest Iowa Educational Foundation, Inc.’s own endowment called the “Southwest Iowa Educational Foundation, Inc. Fund”.

Endow Iowa Tax Credit
Since the Community Foundation for Western Iowa is a qualified community foundation and meets national standards, donors who are Iowa tax payers can receive 25% of their donation in the form of a state tax credit by establishing or giving to an existing qualified endowment; more specifically to support a new SWIEF scholarship.
