Did you know that the County Fair has an Endowment Fund at the Manistee County Community Foundation?
Make a donation and help keep the County Fair thriving for the next 108 years!!
The Endowment Fund is the first of many steps to assure the long term financial stability of the Fair and its mission to the county.
There are significant tax benefits with an endowment donation.
The law permits taxpayers to reduce their Michigan Income Tax or Single Business Tax liability.
Funds will be held through the Manistee County Community Foundation
with interest income only to be used for Capital Improvement, Maintenance, and Land Acquisition
at the Manistee County Fairgrounds by the Manistee County Fair Board.
Please join all the Fair Board members in making a donation to the future of the Manistee County Fair.
Checks should be written to: “Manistee County Community Foundation”
