About Community Services Fund of Nebraska:
Community Services Fund of Nebraska is a nonprofit federation. It was founded in Lincoln, Neb., in 1981 by four nonprofit agencies that wanted to conduct worksite fundraising campaigns but were not included in traditional community campaigns.
Community Services Fund participates with United Way and Community Health Charities in workplace giving campaigns and conducts individual workplace campaigns. With a donor-directed system, Community Services Fund ensures that contributions support member agencies as designated, rather than by predetermined allocation levels.
When you review the list of Community Services Fund agencies, you may find that more than one has played a part in your life. Community Services Fund recognizes that it is your campaign, your check, and your choice.
