Yreka Enrichment Fund

The Yreka Enrichment Fund Committee, YEF, was created to support our community. The Fund is endowed, forever, and the interest can be used for projects in Yreka. It is professionally managed and administered by the Community Foundation of the North State, formerly Shasta Regional Community Foundation. The four projects completed are:

(1) the refurbishment of the “Welcome Signs” at the north and south interchanges

(2) the restoration of the iconic, 108-year-old "YREKA" sign at the central I-5 interchange 

(3) the restoration of the 104-year-old historic Yreka Park Arch and rock wall at the entrance to the park (commonly known as Miner Street Park) 

The above projects were done in partnership with the City of Yreka. 

(4) This year the Yreka Enrichment Fund gave a small grant to Genealogy and the Siskiyou County Historical Society to digitalize records that are important for Yreka preservation.

The fund is available to Yreka’s 501C(3) charities, schools and City.  Yreka Enrichment Fund is participating in North State Giving Tuesday. Also, think of YEF in your will or trust.

LOVE LOCAL, GIVE LOCAL, GRANT LOCAL
