Community foundations work with individuals, families, businesses and organizations to create permanent charitable funds that help meet present and future needs. The foundation invests and administers these funds.

​

Additionally, community foundations are important partners in building and strengthening community, bringing together people and organizations that want to make a difference within their city, county, state and beyond. They are tax-exempt public charities that help guide philanthropy and are committed to improving the quality of life in the areas they serve.
