PACE, established in 2001, serves as a community foundation with the mission of improving the qulaity of life for people in Chickasaw County. The foundation serves as a vehicle to invest our money where our hearts are - in our home place, leaving legacies that set the pace for generations to come.
A diverse local board controls and manages the trust fund and disbersements. PACE has an annual grant cycle for March 15 to June 15.
