Groundhog Ball & Greater Chapin Community Foundation

The Greater Chapin Community Foundation’s Annual Groundhog Ball Fundraiser is more than just a glamorous night out; it’s a testament to the strength and unity of the Chapin community. This year’s event will be held on February 2 at the Cotton Press in Little Mountain. There will be live music, tasty food, an open bar, and awards for the Louetta Slice Philanthropist of the Year and the Bud Lewandowski Youth Philanthropist of the Year.As the Groundhog Ball continues to grow in popularity, so too does its positive impact. By attending, contributing, and celebrating together, residents not only support local initiatives but also strengthen the bonds that make Chapin a truly special place to call home. This ball is a much-anticipated event that not only showcases the vibrant local culture but also serves as a significant fundraising initiative for the foundation’s community projects.   The Greater Chapin Community Foundation is an endowment established to enhance philanthropy in the Greater Chapin area. The foundation is committed to creating a lasting impact by building a permanently endowed fund to address the current and future needs of our community. Through the annual Chapin Philanthropy Awards, GCCF celebrates and honors those who contribute to the betterment of our community.​ Since 2003, the GCCF has more than $575,000 endowed for the future of the community. Over $195,000 in grants have been awarded to over 38 different Greater Chapin nonprofit organizations. https://www.yourfoundation.org/community-funds/chapin/
