GTR Community Foundation
About Us
Serving the community since 1992
The Community Foundation was founded over 30 years ago when a group of community champions came together around a vision to give back to our region then, now, and forever.
This vision lives on within our organization today. We continue engaging in collaborative leadership efforts; funding nonprofit, governmental, educational, and Tribal organizations; supporting local students; and building endowments that leave a lasting impression for generations to come.
