Our Mission
The mission of the North Dakota Community Foundation is to improve the quality of life for North Dakota's citizens through charitable giving and promoting philanthropy.
We primarily do that through the management of charitable endowment funds – permanent resources for North Dakota communities, schools, and charitable organizations. Generous donors give to these funds and grants are awarded every year from these funds to make life better all across our great state.
Our goal is to connect people with the causes they care about . . . to listen to their charitable goals and help them figure out the best way to accomplish them.
NDCF offers hundreds of charitable funds that benefit North Dakota citizens and their communities. We also create new funds based on our donors' specific interests to benefit the causes and programs that are close to their heart.
If you'd like to have a conversation with one of our trusted, experienced planned giving specialists, please give us a call and we'll connect you with one in your area. These conversations are free, confidential, no-obligation discussions about your charitable-giving options.
We exist to help you help others.
