Founders of the Suwannee Valley Community Foundation

The Suwannee Valley Community Foundation is an affiliate fund of The Community Foundation for Northeast Florida, comprised of Columbia, Hamilton, Lafayette, Suwannee & Union counties, and is governed by a local advisory board. We provide guidance for the Advisory Board, as well as administrative services for grantmaking, and we help develop new philanthropy for the region.

Since its inception in 2002, the Suwannee Valley Community Foundation has been actively engaging donors and making grants. It has established organizational endowments for the Rotary Club of Lake City and the United Way of Suwannee Valley, and it has created The Columbia County Senior Services Fund. It has also attracted several endowments which are unrestricted, meaning the earnings from the endowments are able to be invested wherever the Advisory Board discovers needs.
