Our
Community
Strengthen Neighborhoods and Community Institutions
At The Community Foundation, we center the voices and needs of communities throughout DC, Northern Virginia, Montgomery County, and Prince George’s County.
Our community-centered approach combines decades of local expertise with statistical research to deeply understand specific challenges and needs, the neighborhoods most impacted, and opportunities for transformational investment and growth.
We regularly convene local partners and prominent researchers through our VoicesDMV initiative and other efforts to gather accurate community-specific data to help guide both philanthropic investment and community engagement.
