One of the core functions of a community foundation is to serve as a trusted home for charitable funds on behalf of donors and community organizations. We handle the administration, receipting, investment, and stewardship so that fundholders can focus on what matters most.
Whether a fund is established by a family in memory of a loved one, a local club supporting a community project, or an organization looking to create a lasting giving vehicle, NCF provides the infrastructure to make it happen.
Funds at NCF take many forms. Some are established to support a specific cause or sector. Others are created in honour or memory of someone special. Some are tied to particular organizations or initiatives, while others contribute to the community more broadly. Whatever the purpose, every fund at NCF is united by a shared commitment to strengthening Norfolk County.
