Funding the Future - Together
Launched in 2006, Young Philanthropists invigorates community leaders to join together to be philanthropists and learn more about themselves as donors.
By pooling and leveraging our resources, we are creating greater community impact by growing the Future Fund – a permanent endowment fund at the Community Foundation that has awarded $161,500 to local programs that help children and youth. Grant awards are determined through a competitive process with members serving on the grant committee.
We host at least two events each year at no cost to members. The events are opportunities to meet other members, learn about local charitable causes and just have fun!
