A Lasting Legacy for Jefferson Students

A Lasting Legacy for Jefferson Students

As Northwest United Protestant Church prepares to close its doors after decades of service, its final act will leave an incredible legacy for local children. The church has established a $100,000 permanent endowment fund through 3 Rivers Community Foundation (3RCF) to support Jefferson Elementary students.

This fund will provide annual grants for essentials such as school supplies, clothing, pantry items, hygiene products, and extracurricular activities—ensuring support year after year.

Principal Amy Salinas shared:
“On behalf of our staff and families, I want to thank Northwest United Protestant Church for this extraordinary gift. Their ongoing support will make a meaningful difference in the lives of Jefferson students year after year.”

Superintendent Dr. Shelley Redinger added:
“We are grateful to Northwest United Protestant Church and 3 Rivers Community Foundation for their generous gift. Establishing this fund reflects a strong commitment to education and our community, and it will make a lasting difference for our students for years to come.”

We are deeply thankful for this extraordinary gift that will continue to support Jefferson students and families for many years.
