YorkCounts, York County Community Foundation to merge
A merger of YorkCounts and the York County Community Foundation was announced Monday.
When it became apparent that community-building nonprofit YorkCounts and the York County Community Foundation were frequently overlapping in their efforts to improve the county, joining forces seemed to be practicing what they preached, said Eric Menzer, chairman of the foundation board.
The decision, which takes effect immediately, means that YorkCounts will now operate as an initiative of the York County Community Foundation. The foundation manages a variety of endowment funds and distributes about $3 million in grants annually for community improvement projects.
