Support the Grand Chain Family Foundation
The Grand Chain Family Foundation (GCFF) is recognized by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization, and donations to the Foundation are tax-deductible as allowed by law.
Your generosity helps us continue supporting our family, strengthening our reunion traditions, and providing assistance where it is needed most. There are several ways you can contribute:
Direct Donations
Help us keep the family reunion affordable and accessible for everyone. Our fundraising efforts help offset the costs associated with hosting the reunion and allow us to avoid passing additional expenses along to family members.
Every contribution, regardless of the amount, helps make our reunion possible.
Scholarship Fund
Invest in the next generation of our family.
We invite you to support our student relatives by contributing to the Grand Chain Family Foundation Scholarship Fund. Your donation helps us recognize and encourage family members who are pursuing their educational goals.
Please visit our Scholarship Page to learn more about the scholarships and awards available.
Sponsor a Child
Help make sure financial hardship doesn't keep a family from joining us.
We understand that circumstances can change, and some families may need a little extra support to attend the reunion. Through our Sponsor a Child program, you can help cover registration costs for children whose families may otherwise be unable to participate.
Any amount you contribute is welcome and greatly appreciated.
To receive assistance through the program, a household must have at least two children, and sponsored child registration(s) must be accompanied by at least one paid adult registration.
Assistance is available on a first-come, first-served basis. For additional information, please contact Lisa C. Blake, Treasurer, at 248-224-9237.
Families requesting assistance will not be asked personal or financial questions. We are family, and this program operates on the honor system.
