Ashe County Community Foundation

The Ashe County Community Foundation is:

  • A growing family of charitable funds.
  • A resource for area nonprofits.
  • A source of grants for worthy local causes.
  • A resource for donors.

Whatever your means or charitable goals, the Ashe County Community Foundation makes it easy to become a philanthropist. You may contribute to any of the funds at any time, in any amount - or start a new endowment for your favorite charity with $10,000 in initial funding. (Scholarship Funds require $25,000 in initial funding.). We can help you explore estate planning options that will benefit causes near to your heart, while meeting your own financial goals. Our affiliation with the North Carolina Community Foundation assures professional stewardship of all funds. 

The Ashe County Community Foundation joins more than 650 community foundations in transforming our nation and our neighborhoods through the power of philanthropy.
