Henderson Libraries Fund
The Library Fund of the Henderson Community Foundation supports Henderson Libraries in a variety of ways.

Secondly, the Fund will support reading initiatives, struggling reader programs, basic literacy and English as a Second Language (ESL) efforts throughout Henderson. Finally, the Fund may be used to act as a catalyst for a capital campaign to build more library locations in Henderson.
Henderson Military Families Assistance
The military families program is designed to assist families who have a Henderson National Guard soldier deployed overseas. Nevada is the 3rd most tapped state to have guard soldiers deployed. Currently 70% are deployed. Many times the soldier is not compensated for the pay differential and ultimately the families suffer. To make matters even more stressful, you can imagine these men and women digressing from their very important mission overseas to think and worry about their families at home. This puts them and their entire company in danger. This fund supports families in the 1864th, 777, 593, and 772nd companies of the 992nd Command.
