Give

A gift here becomes a grant out there.

Donations to the Elfin Forest Community Foundation are tax-deductible. They fund our community project grants and our matching-grant pool. We do not raise money on behalf of other nonprofits.

EIN 33-0672537. We are a 501(c)(3) public charity. Your gift is deductible to the extent the law allows. The principal of the Remediation Trust stays intact; donations are in addition to that income.

Unless you restrict a gift, it joins the pool the board awards from — project grants in spring and fall, and matching grants when a local 501(c) has a verified campaign. Memo “grants” or “matching” if you want to steer it.

A gift to the Foundation is a gift to the Foundation. We are not a pass-through for another group’s fundraising. Local nonprofits that want a match apply for a matching grant; neighbors who want to fund that pool give here.
