Community Support Keeps the Dream Alive

The Buhl Community Recreational Center does not have a large trust that underwrite our facilities or our programs. We rely on donations from generous community members throughout the year.

For over 80 years these donations have allowed the Buhl Community Recreation Center to provide creative programming within our community.

All donations are tax deductible and can be given in honor or in memory of an individual or to celebrate a special occasion. You can support us with an annual gift or you can remember the BCRC when planning your estate.

Planned Giving

A Planned Gift is both a gift for the future and a gift for today.

When you make a planned gift you receive tax benefits and also have the satisfaction of knowing your gift will provide income in perpetuity to the Center.

Contact the BCRC or The Shenango Valley Foundation for more information.
