The Arlington Community Foundation brings the community together by connecting those with the resources to those people and organizations with fresh, exciting ideas and expertise to strengthen and revitalize our neighborhoods and community. We are different from other charities - we manage and invest your resources so your charitable giving grows and goes back to work for the people of Arlington.

At the core of the Arlington Community Foundation is a permanent endowment of now more than 110 individual funds that are fulfilling the charitable goals of your neighbors and colleagues. With oversight by a volunteer Board of Trustees, grants are either designated by donors or are awarded competitively to schools and other community not-for-profit programs and organizations through the Foundation’s grant programs.
