Helping Our Neighbors
Neighboring matters, especially in a time of crisis.
In times like these when there is a challenging public health situation and we’re all wrestling with uncertainty, remembering that we’re all in this together can be difficult. And we know that in addressing COVID-19, we are only as safe as those most at risk. CLICK HERE to learn more about how you can help.
The Community Foundation’s Resilience Fund is already helping our neighbors address the affects of the Coronavirus (COVID-19). The Resilience Fund is our community’s bounce-back fund. It’s here to help anyone and everyone in our community —individuals, families, nonprofits, businesses—recover from a crisis or disaster through a combination of emergency preparedness investments and response funding. Please join us and make your gift today.
Our President & CEO, Mauri Ingram, shares an update on the extraordinary ways that our community is responding to this crisis.
“We’re excited to be a part of the Foundation – it’s an adventure in building and strengthening our community. What could be more thrilling?”
– John & Joyce Pedlow
Our staff will work closely with you to set up a fund that will allow you to achieve maximum impact in the areas that matter to you. The Whatcom Community Foundation is home to more than 150 separate funds – each with a unique purpose, each created by a visionary individual, family, nonprofit or corporation.
“Community is extremely important to us, and we appreciate everything the Whatcom Community Foundation does to strengthen and enhance our community. That’s why we joined the Madrona Society.”
How do you want to be remembered? Like dozens of your neighbors, you can make a lasting difference in the community you love by including the Community Foundation in your will or living trust.
