Pick a Project; Make a Direct Impact

At the Okoboji Foundation, we’re on a mission to enhance the quality of life for everyone. We achieve this by championing charitable giving, connecting passionate donors with causes they deeply care about, and taking a lead role in addressing area needs. Together, we’re a force for positive change.

While we’re fortunate to be part of a generous community, the sheer number of outstanding local nonprofits can make it a challenge to stay updated on the most urgent needs. That’s why we introduced this page as a valuable resource, offering insights into the needs and opportunities within our communities. It provides an avenue for you to offer support to causes that align with your interests and values.

You have the freedom to explore project profiles. Each profile provides an opportunity to gain deeper insight and make a meaningful impact. This is simplified impact at its best.

Dickinson County Museum

Bringing the Depot to LIFE!

We’ve just insulated and provided heat and cooling to our historic depot, and now are ready to create exciting interactive exhibits focusing on the railroads and the large part they played in the growth of Dickinson County. We’ve been working on the plans for the past year with a professional museum design firm, and are now ready to roll up our sleeves and bring the project – and the depot – to LIFE!

Friends of Lakeside Lab

Innovation and Discovery Lab

Friends of Lakeside Lab supports Iowa Lakeside Laboratory and its efforts to provide K-12 and collegiate STEM and environmental education, water quality research, and community outreach. Additionally, Friends helps to support the scientists, writers and artists in residence programs. To do this, we need buildings and housing for people of all ages and abilities. Our plans include a new educational and water quality lab building, followed by a dormitory. 

Imagination Library of Dickinson County

Give the Gift of Reading

We are raising funds to activate Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library in Dickinson County. Funds for the first two years of the program are needed prior to program launch. Please help us donate to get free books to children from birth to age five. Imagine the difference you can make to children in our community. If you can read, you can learn to do anything!

Lake Park Historical Society

Heritage Square Annex Addition

Construct a new building or “Annex” on the existing Lake Park Heritage Square site which will serve as an educational, recreational, and fun place for families, students and visitors to convene in a civic-center type setting to learn about the heritage of Lake Park, Iowa. With it’s growing popularity, the addition of an Annex to Heritage Square Depot Museum will provide an even greater opportunity to highlight the history of our unique community, and the people who have served in the U.S. Military on behalf of this nation.
