How does TCFHR support nonprofits?
TCFHR supports nonprofit organizations in the following ways:
Do you only support local nonprofits?
Community foundations are set up with a hyper-local focus. Our initiatives, grants, and programming support nonprofits in the Harrisonburg and Rockingham County area.
Our donors, of course, can support nonprofits wherever they desire.
If you don’t operate in this area and you’re looking for aid or grants, there’s probably a community foundation serving your geographic locale. Our colleagues to the north are the Shenandoah Community Foundation. To the south is the Community Foundation of the Central Blue Ridge and the Charlottesville Area Community Foundation.
My organization serves multiple counties. Can we apply for grants or support?
Please call us. We understand that some organizations provide multi-county services. Helpful information for our discussion would be the approximate number of residents you serve as well as the amount of funding used in Harrisonburg and Rockingham County.
Do you have a directory of nonprofits working in the Shenandoah Valley?
We do not host a nonprofit directory at this time. However, our Great Community Give website has nearly 150 organizations listed, with a searchable filter. Another great resource is our Giving Back Guide, which features nearly 80 organizations.
