The
Community
Foundation
is a
nonprofit,
public
charity
created
by and
for
the
people
of Riverside
and
San
Bernardino
Counties.
We connect
donors
with
the
causes
they
care
about.
Established
in 1941,
The
Community
Foundation
now
has
nearly
$54
million
in assets
and
provides
college
scholarships
and
grants
to nonprofit
organizations
across
the
two-county
area.
We are
your
center
for
charitable
investment
in your
community:
We
offer
donors
a wide
variety
of options
for giving—establishing
permanent
endowments,
creating
flexible
donor-advised
funds,
or donating
to existing
funds
here at
The Community
Foundation.
We
provide
wise stewardship
of donor
funds
through
a conservative,
diversified
investment
strategy
guided
by our
Board
with
advice
from
our
investment
management
firm,
Wurts
& Associates.
Each
year we
award
millions
of dollars
in scholarships
and grants
to the
many educational,
humanitarian,
and cultural
organizations
that make
this region
a better
place
to live
for all
of us.
All contributions
to The
Community
Foundation
receive
the maximum
tax advantages
afforded
by law.
On this
website
you will
meet our
professional
staff
and Board
of Directors,
hear from
some of
our donors
and grant
and scholarship
recipients,
and see
how you
can join
us in
creating
a strong
and vibrant
community
through
charitable
giving.

nonprofit
organization,

Grants
Schedule to

Charitable
Americans
now
have
a
tax-advantaged
way
to
give
to
the
causes
they
most
care
about.
You
might
use
it
to
establish
a
permanent
legacy
during
your
lifetime!
But
the
opportunity
to
take
advantage
of
this
provision
only
lasts
through
the
end
of
this
year,
when
the
law
that
created
it
expires.

From big, fierce-looking Camel Spiders, to ancient rock formations in Death Valley, to the lovely and delicate Woolly Star flower, the flora, fauna, and geology of the California deserts will receive some extra attention from graduate students thanks to recent grants from The Community Foundation’s Desert Legacy Fund. The fund, established by an anonymous donor, supports graduate student scientific research that contributes to the awareness and conservation of desert parks, wildernesses, and other ecologically significant open spaces in the California desert.
