The Rev. Douglas T. Pinkard Memorial Scholarship Fund

This scholarship fund was created in memory of Reverend Douglas T. Pinkard. He was a loving father who had five children who attended Spotsylvania County high schools. He was a Baptist Minister in the Spotsylvania community who committed his life to serving others. Some of his missions included: preaching and teaching the gospel, teaching Sunday school and feeding the hungry, as well as visiting the hospitals and prisons. At the age of 62, he was diagnosed with a brain tumor that took him home to be with the Lord. Reverend Pinkard once said, “Plant the seed, even though you may not be there to see the beauty of its maturity.”

The Pinkard family wishes to memorialize their loving family member through an annual scholarship that supports Spotsylvania County or City of Fredericksburg high school graduates who share Reverend Pinkard’s commitment to service. At least one scholarship of $1000 will be offered.

This scholarship is given as a seed that will be planted and cultivated so others may see its beauty.

The Schmidt Trade Construction Fund

The Schmidt Family Construction Fund aims to alleviate the financial burden on students and ensure they have the necessary resources to succeed in their chosen trade.

Joe Schmidt knows construction and Sharon Schmidt knows The Community Foundation. So, when it came time to create a charitable fund, they knew what they wanted to accomplish. The Schmidt's worked with the foundation to meet the needs Joe sees in the construction business today. More people are needed in the industry and the idea of this fund is to help students that are just getting into the field of construction.

This approach recognizes that while funding for classes and education is often available, students may face challenges in acquiring the tools of the trade such as protective equipment or specialized clothing.

This scholarship provides funds to purchase tools and other essential items crucial for practical training and professional development. Grants will be available for local students enrolled in an industry or construction training and certification program in either a high school or a community college.

The Homeless Animals Support Network Fund

This fund, entrusted to the foundation in 2023, is the next step in the evolution of the Homeless Animals Support Network - HASN’s mission to meet the needs of homeless animals all over Virginia.

The work began in October of 2012 as a non-profit fundraising organization dedicated to saving lives and advocating for homeless animals in Prince William County. Realizing the need for assistance stretches across the state, HASN expanded to help other small animal rescue organizations throughout Virginia.

The purpose of the fund is to provide support on an as-needed basis for small rescues and shelters throughout the state of Virginia, to aid in the shared goal of a No-Kill VA. Realizing that not all rescues and communities have access to needed resources, the fund will bridge the gap by advocating for and providing grant assistance and resources to underserved and impoverished communities and homeless pets all across Virginia. Small shelters are defined as those with budgets of $300,000 or less.

Program examples include:

  • Foster programs aimed at keeping pets out of animal shelters,
  • Return to Home programs that assist owners through technology, microchipping, and other resources,
  • Shelter Surrender Intervention aimed at assisting pet owners in need or crisis, to prevent them from surrendering their pets to the shelter,
  • Foster programs for victims of domestic violence or those facing temporary traumatic instances,
  • Assisting pets of the homeless and/or low-income pet owners with medical treatments as part of community outreach. For example, Spay/ Neuter programs, vaccines, behavioral assistance, food, and supplies, etc.,
  • Spay/Neuter services,
  • Something cool and unique that YOUR community needs!
