First Fidelity Bank & Gregory Community Foundation
Learn about the CSA in Gregory, SD.
Founded in 1995 Giving Back to Gregory
The Gregory Community Foundation was established in 1995 when the First Fidelity Bank, through the Lillibridge Foundation, issued a challenge for the community to match $50,000 issued to the community. The grant was matched and the Trust fund from Dr. Vogelsang was combined with the Foundation fund. Assets have grown to nearly $334,000 as of November 2023.
