The Jeff Benson Family Iowa Lincoln Highway Endowment was established by Jeff's loved ones to honor his memory by utilizing an innovative program to give back to the Iowa Lincoln Highway Association, which Jeff was passionate about and reflected his values.

​

The Jeff Benson Family Iowa Lincoln Highway Endowment is managed by the Story County Community Foundation and Community Foundation of Greater Des Moines.  The Fund is perpetual and will be a sustained financial resource for the Iowa Lincoln Highway Association.

​

The Iowa Lincoln Highway Association annually and exclusively receives a 5% distribution of the Endowment's principal.  Contributing to the Endowment is a financial investment for the Iowa Lincoln Highway Association.

​

This is an Endow Iowa Fund, allowing Iowa taxpayers to take a tax credit equal to 25% of a gift in addition to the normal federal deduction for charitable gifts.
