Since 1998, the Spearfish Community Foundation (SCF) has been enhancing lives across northwestern South Dakota through its community savings account (CSA) endowment, established in partnership with the South Dakota Community Foundation (SDCF). In 2021, SCF launched the “Impacting Tomorrow Today” initiative, aimed at driving higher-impact projects that address key community needs.
Sue Konstant, SCF President, and Beth Massa, Director of Foundation Relations at SDCF, sat down for a conversation about how SCF works to support the Spearfish community through engaging partnerships. One project has brought the community together to save lives–the Public Access AED Community Project.
In this episode, you will hear:
How SCF has partnered with the City of Spearfish on large-scale projects

“We could not have done this without community support,” reflected Sue, “It’s truly humbling, and without the community, we wouldn’t have gained momentum to see this life-saving project come to fruition.”
