Grant Information
As a community foundation, we take the broadest view of what a community is and what it needs to succeed. This is why our grants support everything from shelter, sustenance and care for those most in need, to recreation, the arts, and the environment.
We believe that vitality comes from all corners of a community, so we grant funds to the widest possible range of organizations and initiatives.
