Your Community Giving Story Awaits

The actions of local people can transform lives in our community. This community giving spirit is evident in each moving story of impact we hear and experience. Like the stories throughout our 2023 Annual Report and on the pages of our website, each story of generosity and legacy-building combine to create the story of our Community Giving Foundation.

You have your own community giving story. The Foundation's Giving Workbook will walk you through the process of discovering what you want your giving story to be—investigating your passions, values, and options for your philanthropy in partnership with us. Whether you are just learning about community foundations or are ready to take the next step in establishing a legacy through our Foundation, the activities and information in this book are for you!

You can be an integral part of the giving story in our community, making a positive difference long into the future. It’s time to write your community giving story!

Please Note: The financial information on the dashboard may change if any revenue or expense activity is received after the date the information was prepared, but is related to that specific reporting period.
