Why the blue?

The blue portion of the Community Foundation flower represents the circus tents of Miami County’s city of Peru, known as the “Circus Capital of the World.” Miami County’s circus history dates back to the late 19th century. By the 1920s, Peru was known as “Circus City.” The International Circus Hall of Fame is located there, and the town hosts a Circus City Festival and Parade each summer. The festival is put on by the Peru Amateur Circus, which is made up of performers ages 7 to 21.

“I want people to know that gifts to the Miami County Community Foundation stay in Miami County to support local organizations and projects. I also want people to know that even the smallest gift can help sustain a positive quality of life in Miami County. So, no gift is too big, and no gift is too small.”
