Since the early work of the founders of The Community Foundation of the New River Valley the focus has been on building a better community, for now and for the future.

We are a grassroots organization on the constant lookout for opportunities to connect with our neighbors; to investigate their needs and find solutions; to envision grand projects and the means to bring them to life.

On a more personal level, we are servants for a greater cause, inspiring financial support with the goal of achieving social wealth for our community.

Our staff and board are known throughout the community for their active engagement in convening community to address emerging issues and to grow an active local leadership that truly serves our community.
