I joined the St Francis Community Foundation Board in 2007 and have been a part of many changes. It's an honor to serve, establishing CCKCF as an important part of our communities. My vision is working to build a strong foundation and leave a solid legacy for generations to come.

Over the years, I have enjoyed being a part of the Community Foundation, and watching it grow from the original vision. The community giving continues to build the quality of life for all citizens of Cheyenne County, now and for generations to come. Together we have built community endowments, addressed needs through grantmaking, including scholarships; and provided leadership on key issues. I encourage others to be part of this vision.

Carl Werner served on the Community Foundation board since it's inception and has been through the organization through all of its changes. He served USD 297- St. Francis Public Schools for the majority of his lengthy career as an educator and administrator. Carl's love of education and the USD 297 school system is what prompted him to establish the St. Francis Educational Foundation Fund.
While Carl retired from the school and CCKCF board in 2020, he is forever an honorary member of our board.
