Join the Coalition of Community Foundations for Youth

Membership in CCFY is free and open to all community foundations.

In return, all we ask is that your community foundation endorse our mission statement and make a commitment to develop the capacity of institutions and residents to secure and sustain measurable improvements in the lives of children, youth, and families.

We believe the benefits to members of this network go far beyond the scope of CCFY's grants programs as we learn from and support one another in ways that will strengthen and enhance the community foundation field. We hope you will join us.

ONLINE APPLICATION

Member Endorsement

Our community foundation is committed to proactive grantmaking and does now or will actively participate in the creation of a more coherent system of supports and opportunities for children, youth and families.

As a Coalition of Community Foundations for Youth member, we understand that we will be eligible to receive technical assistance through the national conference series and various technical assistance and capacity-building grants programs. We also understand that ongoing assistance from CCFY's national staff and peer coaching to serve as a problem-solving resource are available, including connecting experienced community foundations with communities that may be at an earlier stage of development. Membership in CCFY is free.

In return, we agree to:

Endorse CCFY's mission: to strengthen the leadership capacity of community foundations to improve the lives of children, youth and families,
Assign a staff person to serve as the primary contact with CCFY, and
Participate in network activities, including from time to time sharing information about your community foundation's programming on behalf of children, youth and families.
