JCF Nonprofit Resource Center 

Community foundations are grantmaking public charities that are dedicated to improving the lives of people in a defined local geographic area. They bring together the financial and non-monetary resources of individuals, families, and businesses to support effective nonprofits in their communities and play a key role in addressing community challenges.  

Through our Nonprofit Resource Center, JCF works with our community of local nonprofits each year to strengthen their operations and collective impact by: 

• • Providing effective and responsive support and resources to build nonprofit capacity 
  • Developing and nurturing relationships and dynamic networks?to amplify collective impact?? 
    • Maintaining a working and emergent knowledge of community issues and opportunities  
    • Engaging in listening and dialogue?to?help develop organizational and community strategy 
  • Helping to sustain, nurture, and galvanize a community of changemakers??? 

We offer local nonprofits access to these resources:
