Charlottesville Area Community Foundation

**About** We are committed to centering the experiences of those who are most impacted by the issues our region faces, and to widening access to our resources (both monetary and non-monetary) to ensure they are distributed equitably. **Our Mission** As a community-centered, equity forward institution, our mission is to improve the quality of life for those negatively impacted by inequitable systems across our region, so that we can be a region in which everyone can belong, participate, contribute, and thrive. **Our Approach** The Community Foundation, in collaboration with donors and community-based organizations, facilitates effective and impactful grant making, philanthropy, scholarships, and other forms of non-monetary support while being responsive to the ever-changing needs of our region.
