The McPherson County Community Foundation has announced a change to its annual countywide matching event. This year, MCCF's Match Week will move from its traditional spot during the first week of March to the fall of 2026, and the foundation will combine its separate Match Weeks for Inman, Moundridge and McPherson County into a single Match Month spanning part of October and November.

MCCF CEO Michelle Huddle said combining the individual Match Weeks into one monthlong event better reflects how donors engage with matching opportunities. "We believe that moving to the fall and expanding the giving window will ultimately benefit both our donors and the participating organizations," Huddle said. "Not only will donors have a 30-day window to contribute, but they will also have multiple matching opportunities at their fingertips." Matching opportunities will remain community-specific, and the foundation will continue to feature designated weeks that highlight each community's opportunities, including in-person giving events.

Additional details about MCCF's Match Month, including participating organizations, matching amounts, and specific dates and times, will be announced later this year.
