Lancaster County
Community Foundation

 

Welcome to the Lancaster County Community Foundation!  Established in 1924, we use our resources to Create Extraordinary Community by collaborativley seeking out and acting on opportunities that positively impact residents of Lancaster County. 

Our mission is to provide community leadership and encourage permanent charitable endowments to capitalize on opportunities throughout Lancaster County.

As a public foundation, we currently manage more than $65 million in charitable assets.  Individuals, organizations, and governmental bodies can establish named funds for a wide range of charitable purposes, which are then invested and managed by us for the long-term benefit of Lancaster County.
