We're sad to say goodbye to Jack Stromwall, who passed away on December 17. In addition to being a pillar of the community and the creator of two Funds here at ECCF, he was a Founder of the Eau Claire Community Foundation. Without the vision and generosity of Jack and his fellow Founders, we might not be here to support Eau Claire's nonprofits.

You can learn more about Jack's life and accomplishments by reading his obituary in the Leader-Telegram.

Jack was a strong supporter of students seeking post-secondary educations, and both of his Funds help students attain that goal, regardless of their financial circumstances. 

The Stromwall Family Scholarship Fund supports post-secondary students in financial need.

The Stromwall Family Student Emergency Fund provides financial support for Chippewa Valley Technical College students who struggle to pay expenses like rent or childcare. By meeting these needs, it will help these students focus on their educations.

While we'll miss Jack, we at ECCF are glad we can play a role in carrying forward his legacy of generosity.
