Community Support

Charitable giving through the Community Foundation is intentional. We empower and inspire our fundholders to give in creative ways, and our funding opportunities enable a broad array of local nonprofits and small businesses to dream big and be successful in ways that would not otherwise be possible. Together, we are transforming our community.

Funding

From supporting local startups, scholarship opportunities, impact investments through Invest Louisville, and local grantmaking through Fund for Louisville and other focused initiatives, the Community Foundation offers funding for nonprofit organizations, community leaders, pioneering business ideas, and projects advancing social and financial benefit.

Give for Good Louisville

Give for Good Louisville is Kentuckiana's biggest online giving day. It provides charitable organizations access to a safe and secure donation platform, unique fundraising opportunities to attract new donors and retain current supporters, brand visibility and connections with local media partners, and free professional development opportunities.
