One family. One vision. A lasting legacy.

More than 25 years ago, Jack TerHar Jr.’s $100,000 challenge gift inspired our community to establish the Legacy Fund Endowment with a vision of reaching $1 million. Today, the Legacy Fund has grown to more than $2 million.

Now the TerHar family has issued a new challenge: help grow the Legacy Fund to $3 million by December 2030, with $50,000 in matching gifts each year.
