Montana Community Foundation

The Montana Community Foundation is a philanthropic support organization offering donor services, endowment building opportunities and philanthropic advocacy. Through the power of permanently endowed funds, the Foundation helps donors achieve their philanthropic goals and enables nonprofit organizations to establish stable income sources. In the broadest sense, our mission is to cultivate a culture of giving so Montana communities can flourish. Since 1988, the Montana Community Foundation has worked aggressively to expand endowed philanthropy and build stronger communities. Our work with donors, charitable organizations, cities and towns plays a critical role in both philanthropic and community development. Our granting has benefited scores of organizations and projects that make Montana a better place to live and work.Our work would not be possible without vigilant attention to funds management and administration. We carefully steward the more than $70 million that has been entrusted to the Foundation. A qualified board of directors, experienced staff, proven investment managers, analysts and legal professionals ensure that funds held by the Foundation provide a predictable income stream as well as growth through active management of the investment portfolios.
