Funds that support our Community Grants Program
Grants are awarded through our competitive Community Grants program, benefitting a wide range of charities throughout Kingston and area. Project proposals are invited twice a year and are evaluated by our volunteer grants committee.
Community Funds– our broadest fund, supporting grants that support our primary granting priorities. As a permanent endowment fund, your gift will be pooled with others to benefit our community forever.

Funds that support Specific Charities

Operating Endowment Fund– a fund that supports us, the Community Foundation, and the ongoing work that we do.
