THE CARTER WICKWIRE SOCIETY
CARING FOR OUR COMMUNITY'S FUTURE
JCF was founded in 1948 with two special gifts. During World War II, the families of Lt. John L. Carter and Pfc. John Gilbert Wickwire donated proceeds from the life insurance policies in the name of their sons, both of whom lost their lives in battle, to ultimately form the Jackson Community Foundation.
​
The Carter and Wickwire families understood the importance of planning for the future and creating a legacy for their families. By naming the Jackson Community Foundation in your will, you can join a distinctive list of individuals and families who are doing the same.
