OUR HISTORY


Guide Dog Foundation

"A History of Helping Huntington" the Townwide Fund of Huntington was founded in 1961 by a group of private citizens who wanted to help local charities raise funds. The organization's essential mission was to keep money raised in Huntington within the community.

Now over 45 years and $9 million later, we continue to infuse local organizations with the support they need to provide health and human services to the people of Huntington.

As a non-governmental agency, The Townwide Fund of Huntington bridges the gap between dwindling governmental support for local charities and the increasing needs of community residents.
