Lakeside Wealth Management Group, of Chesterton, IN, has announced their gift of $20,000 to the Porter County Community Foundation to establish a donor advised fund.
“In these challenging economic times, we believe it is important that we stay focused on giving back to the community with both our time and money,” said Mark Chamberlain, CEO of Lakeside Wealth Management Group. “This gift is in addition to the annual gifts we continue to make to the various not-for-profit organizations we support in Northwest Indiana.”
The Lakeside Wealth Management Fund is one of the more than 200 funds associated with the Porter County Community Foundation. “We are thrilled to be able to work with Lakeside Wealth Management and help them achieve their philanthropic goals,” said Barb Young, President of the Porter County Community Foundation. “The Foundation works with donors to help connect them to the causes they care about which helps us all build a stronger community and a lasting legacy.”
“Perhaps, more significant than this contribution is our team’s ongoing commitment to donating their time to many causes in Northwest Indiana. We hold ourselves up to be an example to our families, partners, and neighbors as we contribute to making Northwest Indiana a better place to live, work and play,” added Timothy Rice, President of Lakeside Wealth Management Group. “We are hopeful that this is a gift we can continue to make every year.”
