Planting at Sunfield school and biodynamic farm, JCCF's first grant recipient

The Jefferson County Community Foundation connects people who want give with nonprofit organizations that need their support.

Created by and for the people of Jefferson County, the Foundation is a tax-exempt nonprofit with the long-term goal of creating permanent funds for the charitable benefit of the county's residents. We encourage and support meaningful dialogue on issues affecting our community and work with philanthropists to develop creative solutions to meet critical community needs. JCCF channels local investment, keeping your dollars local and building on the strengths and talents of our community.

The Foundation makes it easy to give what you want in the way that you want, helping you make a tangible difference close to home.

Our Mission:

To inspire donors to invest in Jefferson County and to achieve their charitable goals from generation to generation through grant making, enlightened civic leadership and strategic investments.

How do I get involved?

Anyone can make a gift of any size to JCCF, whether to an existing fund, to a new fund that you establish, or by leaving a legacy after you're gone. Part of our mission is to promote philanthropy — to make giving easy and accessible to everyone.
