Community
The Community Foundation of Louisville regularly convenes and supports discussion of timely and important topics affecting our community. It also provides support for community foundations to work in rural parts of Kentucky.
Organizations
The Community Foundation of Louisville believes our community is stronger when nonprofits and other community-minded organizations have the financial resources, connections, knowledge, and support to thrive.
Field of Interest Grants

Each Field of Interest Fund was established by a donor with a specific charitable purpose in mind and, in perpetuity, will continue to support the issues that the donor cared about most.
