Created in 1992, the Clyde Area Foundation now has an endowment fund of $147,204.37, and supports many worthwhile activities in Clyde. Together with the privately-funded Harold & Leola Woods Charitable Trust which also supports the community, Clyde has $790 in endowed funds for every man, woman, and child in town. Individual gifts to the foundation make larger dreams possible, such as new ball diamonds, a community center, and investments in Clyde’s economic future.
