About Us
The Foundation of Cornerstone Communities supports initiatives and programs that directly impact the everyday health and vitality of residents of all ages in the region served by Guttenberg Municipal Hospital & Clinics, including the Cornerstone Family Practice clinic communities of Guttenberg, Garnavillo and Edgewood. Our rural communities, like most, are shrinking. The future of healthcare in the region we serve will be driven by growing our population in the decades to come. We believe the most effective way to grow our population tomorrow is to build healthy, vibrant communities today. The Foundation of Cornerstone Communities seeks out relationships with community leaders in the region and provides grants to partner organizations that undertake bold new steps to: - Strengthen and grow recreational and social activities which support everyday health and vitality of residents - Drive community efforts to support local entrepreneurs - Celebrate and enhance the historic and authentic character and sense of our communities, such as revitalizing signature structures

The Foundation of Cornerstone Communities had another extraordinary year to celebrate! The growth of the Foundation endowment will result in a larger annual payout to fund more projects into the future. The FCC applied for and was approved for a $75,000 challenge grant from the CFGD Small Town Dreams Initiative in late 2020 to build its endowment to $450,000. Within the first quarter of 2021, the first milestone was met with gifts and pledges secured over three years making the total raised, with match $225,000. In the summer, the FCC launched the community phase with a campaign called "A Strong Tomorrow" to raise the additional $225,000. Thanks to our generous donors, we are only $48,620 away from reaching our goal! Your 2021 year end gift will help!
