From time to time, the Community Foundation works with individuals and businesses in a specific geographical region to create a fund to benefit the residents of that area. The volunteers that support these funds provide countless hours of service, for which we are very grateful.

You may make a contribution to any of our geographic affiliates and receive the same tax benefits and support that any of our other donors receive. Currently, the Community Foundation geographic affiliates include:
