Contar historias es un acto poderoso que da vida a valores y experiencias, y a menudo inspira mayores niveles de comprensión y generosidad. Contar tu propia historia te permite reflexionar sobre el significado y el impacto de los acontecimientos importantes, descubrir las causas más importantes para ti y dejar un relato escrito de tu trayectoria que puedas compartir con amigos y familiares ahora o cuando ya no estés. Y seamos sinceros: si alguien va a contar tu historia, ¿no preferirías que ese alguien fueras tú?

A muchas personas incluso les resulta útil el proceso de grabar su historia antes de decidir el objetivo de sus donaciones benéficas o legados. A menudo, el proceso descubre pasiones por causas que aún no habían considerado. Y sabemos que capturar historias hace más fuerte a nuestra comunidad, fomenta el orgullo por nuestra región y mantiene vivos para siempre los recuerdos de personas generosas.

A continuación, puedes ver algunas de las bellas historias de donaciones captadas y conservadas por la Fundación Comunitaria a lo largo de los años.
