The Bill and Susan Sherrard Foundation was established by William S. Sherrard in 2001. Bill and Susan Sherrard were quiet people with a humble attitude, who never sought praise or recognition for their charitable activities.
However, Bill and Susan’s benevolence is not something to ignore when describing their character. Bill loved farming and harness racing, and Susan was a teacher. Bill was also very passionate about history and preservation of artifacts.
He showed this through countless hours of volunteering at the Geneseo Historical Museum. During their lives, Bill and Susan donated an elevator to the Geneseo Historical Museum and a grandstand cover at the Henry County Fair Grounds. Today, the Sherrard Foundation continues to provide resources to a multitude of organizations in Geneseo, Illinois that would not be the same without their generosity.
