About The Community Foundation
Placer Community Foundation helps identify and meet emerging needs within our community by encouraging and increasing responsible and effective philanthropy by and for the benefit of all who live, learn, work and play in Placer County. We track the impact of organizations and programs working to make a difference in our community and through the generosity and vision of our donors we grant hundreds of thousands of dollars annually.

We’re in the business of building community. As a unique, established resource for community philanthropy, we serve donors and nonprofit agencies that are turning community resources into community good.
We work closely with people who give and their professional advisors to help each donor achieve his or her personal, charitable, and financial goals. We help individuals, families, and businesses create personal legacies through named funds.
