Donate to a Fund

When combined with others in Lorain County, even a small donation will have a positive impact. Your charitable giving makes a world of difference to the causes that matter to you.

General contributions to Community Foundation of Lorain County can be made to our Touch the Future Fund.  Touch the Future Fund allows Community Foundation to apply flexible, unrestricted dollars towards immediate needs and create a lasting impact that will grow and change as the community does. Feel free to also search for other funds under Interest Area or search by keyword. We have 700+ organizational, field of interest, designated, donor-advised, school district and scholarship funds.

If you would like to donate gifts of appreciated stock, real estate, life insurance, retirement plans, artwork, jewelry, grain, or other assets, or if you have questions about donating to any of our endowment funds from a Donor Advised Fund that is not held with the Community Foundation, please get in touch with Laura at 440.984.7390 or lmalone@peoplewhocare.org.
