SUPPORT YOUR
​COMMUNITY FOUNDATION

The Community Foundation was founded on a powerful promise: to create a lasting institution where the people of the Red River Valley can come together and join their resources to meet our region’s most pressing needs – not just now, but forever. For 23 years, hundreds of thoughtful and caring donors, like you, have empowered our work to safeguard and advance the region where we find homes, establish businesses, raise families, pursue educational opportunities, and, ultimately, create a community that we love.

Your trust in our mission and your partnership with our cause have had a resounding impact:
  • Since 1998, we have granted over $9.4 million to create healthier, more vibrant communities.
  • During the pandemic, we have partnered with 46 families, businesses, and foundations to distribute $350,000 in relief and recovery across 41 nonprofits in Grand Forks, Walsh, and Polk Counties.
  • This year our Women’s Fund resumed its annual Leadership Academy, providing free personal and professional development to 19 area women.
  • Over the course of the past year, we have partnered with donors, financial advisors, and nonprofits to establish 10 new charitable funds that will offer educational scholarships, provide for the unique needs of foster families, address gaps in equity, and celebrate the diverse cultures found across our region.

The Community Foundation is a unique and vital part of the fabric of our community, a cornerstone from which so many good things are created. Our Annual Fund supports a broad range of activities that have led to this expansive impact, such as strengthening local nonprofits through capacity building and funding opportunities, cultivating the next generation of philanthropists, and harnessing the collective giving of donors in our region when disaster strikes.

​Generous donations to our Annual Fund help us continue to seek regional and national philanthropic partners, mobilize resources to address changing needs, and support charitable causes that are filling critical gaps in accessibility, advocacy, and opportunity.

​Please help us continue these efforts through a capacity-building gift for the Foundation. Your donation to the 2021 Annual Fund will provide day-to-day support and increase the strength of the Foundation for tomorrow through thoughtful, impactful philanthropy.
​
With deepest gratitude,

Becca Baumbach
Executive Director​
