Dr. Felicia Ganther, president of Bucks County Community College, and Dr. Benjamin E. Rusiloski, president of Delaware Valley University, were both recently appointed to the Bucks County Foundation board of directors, which serves as the distribution committee for grants and scholarships for the foundation.
“We are pleased to welcome Ben and Felicia to our board of directors and are confident they will both bring a tremendous amount of relevant experience and insight to Bucks County Foundation as we continue our mission to enhance the quality of life for residents of the county by stimulating philanthropic opportunity and developing long-term financial assets,” said Grace Deon, Esq., BCF board of directors president. “Dr. Rusiloski and Dr. Ganther join BCF at an exciting time as we also welcomed a new executive director this year and are confident that BCF is positioned to grow to serve even more Bucks County residents and nonprofits.”
“We welcome our three newest members,” said Mandy Mundy, executive director. “They bring a wealth of experience and join a talented group of board members who are working to further our mission of promoting philanthropy to advance the wellbeing of our Bucks County forever.”
Founded in 1979, Bucks County Foundation is a charitable trust created to serve Bucks County and its residents. The foundation helps individuals who love this community and want to financially support it in perpetuity by establishing a named fund, leaving a bequest in a will, or supporting an agency endowment. BCF connects people who care with causes that matter, so their philanthropic contributions make a difference now and in the future.
This year, the foundation awarded more than $200,000 in grants and provided nearly $262,000 in scholarships for Bucks County students.
