About Greater Washington Community Foundation

FOR OVER 50 YEARS, THE GREATER WASHINGTON COMMUNITY FOUNDATION HAS IGNITED THE POWER OF PHILANTHROPY TO RESPOND TO CRITICAL COMMUNITY NEEDS AND BUILD A THRIVING REGION WHERE EVERY PERSON PROSPERS. As the regions largest local funder, we have invested $1.7 billion since 1973 to build racially equitable, just, and thriving communities so that people of all races, places, and identities reach their full potential. The Community Foundation is a trusted advisor and navigator helping thousands of individuals, families, businesses, and government partners make a meaningful difference throughout this region and beyond. We serve as a critical link between caring donors, committed nonprofits, and local communities where potential too often exceeds resources.
