Barberton Community Foundation partners with the Tuscora Park Health & Wellness Foundation and is responsible for its administration. Barberton Community Foundation We, at Barberton Community Foundation, are a neighbor and partner. We are committed to improving the quality of life for Barberton residents, today and in the future. We are Barberton’s catalyst and tool for uniting gifts of time, talent, and treasure to create transformational impact. To do this, we utilize the continual giving power of our original endowment and funds established by donors with their hearts focused on Barberton. A community foundation’s value goes well beyond financial management.
