Uniting Together To Create A Stronger Future For Our Community

The Tipton Community Foundation was established in the Fall of 2023 when a group of small-town individuals with big dreams met around a living room table. The group wanted to form a 501c3 non-profit organization where citizens could come together to provide funds to enrich the quality of life for all residents of Tipton, today and well into the future.

In order to set this vision in motion it was noted that each couple/individual present would need to pledge $1,000 to cover the initial set-up-fund and legal fee's. All present were unanimously in favor to do so! Their donations allowed them to give back to the community and the supportive individuals who helped raise them.

The Board of Directors immediately invested in their greatest resources, the alumni of Tipton as well as friends and family of their community. In 3 short months the Tipton Community Foundation has been blessed to raise & invest $65,000 in an Organization Fund under the Solomon Valley Community Foundation. Our goal is to reach $100,000 in 2024!

The volunteer Board of Directors and Advisory Committee are dedicated to help preserve the heritage of Tipton, build relationships and link arms with local leadership to improve our community. We know we may not be able to predict all of our needs now or in the future, but what a wonderful feeling it is to know we are leaving a legacy for the next generation of Tipton!

We are currently trying to raise funds to help construct the new Tipton Sports Complex. This complex will house a Community Gym, Prairie Arts & Wellness Center, New Indoor/Outdoor Concessions, Bathrooms and Storage for local sports teams. Our goal is to break ground in the Fall of 2024.
