Expanding Charitable Giving 

to make more possible across Northern Virginia

Charitable giving is personal – it is not merely a financial transaction. Our lives, relationships, and experiences inform our philanthropy more than anything else.

Think of the Community Foundation for Northern Virginia as your personalized charitable giving staff. Based on years of collective professional experience and a deep understanding of the needs in the community, we provide insight to help individuals and financial advisors' clients with their charitable plans.

Join us in building a Northern Virginia for everyone.

Give back by supporting a cause you care about, addressing challenges in your communities, or creating a lasting legacy for future generations.

“I have been involved with the Community Foundation since the beginning 40 years ago and I am so happy to see how far we have come. We really wanted to make a difference in Northern Virginia. Now it partners with more than 250 donor advisors to grow local philanthropy, helps hundreds of students in our region afford a college education, sustains countless nonprofit organizations doing critical work for our neediest neighbors, and has become a cornerstone of our community. I know the future of the region I call home is stronger with the Community Foundation forever working to make it a better place for all of us.” — Jim Wordsworth, Founding member, Community Foundation for Northern Virginia
