Individuals
We believe that people want to make a positive contribution to their community. And we believe that there is one solution to every challenge facing our community: a human response. The Community Foundation is committed to mobilizing local people and resources to meet those ever-changing needs. With integrity, quality and community as our compass, it is absolutely possible!
Businesses
Much of philanthropy is facilitated through private businesses, their owners and employees. Your business makes a positive contribution to our economy, but it can make important community impacts in other areas that align with company values. Whether extending charity to your employees or to the community as a whole, NVCF can help your business strategically serve the interests of your clientele.
Nonprofits & Agencies
Regional nonprofits rely on and take advantage of the fiscal strength and investment expertise provided by North Valley Community Foundation. In turn, nonprofits can concentrate on making a direct impact in the community. Our partners represent some of the most diverse nonprofits in the North Valley.
Professional Advisors
Attorneys, accountants, investment managers, real estate brokers and insurance agents represent the gateway to their clients’ philanthropic goals and desires. We work closely with professional advisors to make sure that they and their clients are aware of the types of charitable funds to utilize, types of assets to give, and ways to give that can serve the client’s wishes and lifetime planning. In addition, we help advisors, their clients, and other nonprofit organizations consider the most effective non cash gifts, often referred to as planned giving.
