Community Foundation of the New River Valley

You care about the community, and no one knows the New River Valley better than the Community Foundation. We invest in our community, now and for future generations, by encouraging charitable giving, supporting innovative programs, and nurturing collaboration. As a national award-winning organization, we have been featured as a model for cutting-edge philanthropy. We can be trusted to help you express your values and your commitment to the region in ways that will have the greatest long-term impact.

The Fund for the NRV is one of the ways that we invest in our community. This fund supports community collaboration to develop lasting solutions to our region’s most pressing needs. The Fund allows us to incentivize collaboration and invest in regional projects that will be of lasting benefit to NRV residents through initiatives focused on food security, early childhood education and development, aging in place, and nonprofit capacity building.

When you donate directly to the Community Foundation, you help us continue the collaborative work we do through the Fund for the NRV. You can also direct your donation to a specific scholarship or donor advised fund on the donation page.
