Various citizens have volunteered their time to write a column for the local newspaper, The Daily Jefferson County Union. The columns, under the title of Fort Foundation Focus, are published as they become available. The columns explain certain aspects of the Foundation and discuss some of the projects that it funds. The list below provides links to a selection of these columns.

If you are interested in seeing examples of projects funded recently by the Foundation, click here for a photo tour of a selection of such projects.
