We love the places we call “home”—those towns and cities, parks and playgrounds, where we spent so much of our lives and for which we have fond memories. We want those places to mean as much to our families as they do to us—from one generation to the next.
 
 
 
To keep those places vibrant, healthy, fun, inspiring, and safe for our next generations, we want to protect those places and make them even better for the next generations.
 
That’s what community foundations do. Community foundations are designed to support the communities where they are located. Through the philanthropy of donors who care about the community, community foundations support the arts and culture, education, the environment and natural resources, and the human service organizations that support the residents in need. Find out what the Community Foundation of Western Nevada is doing—through the charitable giving of generous donors—to help support our local community and communities throughout northern Nevada.
