The Community Foundation

A community foundation is a charitable organization that pools donations from individuals, families, and businesses to support local initiatives and nonprofits. It acts as a bridge between donors and community needs, helping to fund projects in areas like education, health, and the arts. Through strategic granting and investment, community foundations aim to enhance the quality of life in their neighborhoods. They enable donors to create funds that reflect their values and interests while promoting long-term sustainable change in the community. Additionally, they often provide resources and expertise to help nonprofits succeed.
