Type of fund

Agency Endowment

“We are very grateful for these initial donations to establish this much needed endowment to ensure the stability of the Seneca Historical Guild and therefore providing for the preservation of the Seneca area history for generations to come,” said Jeff Maierhofer, Seneca Historical Guild President. “We hope to build this fund so we can generate interest for short term needs while saving money for larger capital projects. Of course, we will welcome and encourage others with a connection to Seneca to contribute to the Endowment Fund to help with this goal.” 

Financial donations may also be mailed or made in person at our office 116 W. Lafayette Street, Suite 2, Ottawa, IL 61350. If you prefer to make a financial contribution by mail, please make your check payable to SRCCF. For more information about the Seneca Historical Guild Fund, please contact (815)252-2906.
