Here in Placer County, we aspire to be a magnetic place with opportunity, prosperity, and a fulfilling life for all.

That’s why Placer Community Foundation exists. We unite people, ideas, and resources to address community challenges and create opportunities. We do this through gathering knowledge, convening stakeholders, addressing systemic needs, inspiring giving, and marshalling diverse resources for the greatest impact.

Join us to dream big and act boldly to create prosperity for all.

STORIES

I know that with Placer Community Foundation we made a difference that we could not have made by ourselves. Because our gift to the Community Needs Fund adds to an endowment, our family’s gift will last longer than our lifetime.
