The Robeson County Community Foundation (RCCF) aims to build community assets through the creation of permanent endowments, grants, and leadership in Robeson County. Founded in 2005 and guided by a local volunteer advisory board, RCCF facilitates local philanthropy by making it accessible for individuals of any means to support local causes, either by opening an endowment for their favorite cause or contributing to an existing fund.
The Graham County Community Foundation oversees the Graham County Unrestricted Fund, an annual competitive grants program dedicated to enhancing the quality of life within Graham County by addressing changing community needs. This fund specifically supports local nonprofit organizations with grants, with individual grant amounts starting at a minimum of $500 and the total grantmaking not exceeding $2,500. This initiative reflects the foundation's commitment to leveraging local knowledge and resources to meet community needs and access opportunities.
