Michael and Eloise Newsome Fund for York County

Michael and Eloise Newsome never intended to stay in York County very long. Originally York was going to be a short career stop, but a peculiar thing happened along the way – they started giving to the community and the community responded. The Newsomes believed that York County was relying on them to make a difference. “York County grows on you, especially if you immerse yourself into its cultural, business, and social life,” said Michael. “When you appreciate the needs of the community, you give of your time and talent to make York a better place to live, work, and play.” The next logical step for the Newsomes was to make a difference through charitable giving. The Community Foundation’s Fund for York County was the right vehicle for Michael and Eloise to continue their community work and develop the legacy they hope to leave in York. “The Michael and Eloise Newsome Fund for York County will help us make York a great place to live for everyone,” said the Newsomes. “We’re pleased to be able to make a difference.”
