For over 50 years, the Greater Washington Community Foundation has mobilized and ignited the transformational power of philanthropy to address critical community needs and build a thriving region where every person prospers.

Together with our donors and community partners, we lead a diverse portfolio of impact funds and initiatives advancing real solutions to some of our region’s most pressing challenges.
