Community Funds

Community Funds Welcome Gifts of Any Size

In 2007 The Norfolk Foundation expanded its Community Fund grant program by introducing six field of interest funds that accept gifts of any size. All donations will be used for grants to nonprofits working to improve life in Hampton Roads. Donors can choose whether their gift goes to the:

  • Community Fund (which supports a variety of nonprofits)

  • Community Fund for Arts and Culture

  • Community Fund for Civic Leadership

  • Community Fund for Educational Achievement

  • Community Fund for the Environment

  • Community Fund for Health and Human Services

  • Community Fund for Scholarships

To donate to any of the Community Funds, please send a check to The Norfolk Foundation earmarked for the fund you choose. The address is One Commercial Place, Suite 1410, Norfolk, Virginia 23510. You can also donate online.
