About our Photos

In the age of instantaneous information, blogs, and databases, the proliferation of data about nonprofit work makes for a dizzying array of charitable giving options.  The Community Foundation of Western Massachusetts represents your reliable guide to intelligent giving.

• We know the nonprofit scene, and our competitive grantmaking process offers the best assurance that scarce charitable dollars will be put to their best use;
• We represent a convenient way to leave a permanent legacy;
• We encourage generosity by accepting unusual assets;
• We help professional advisors engage their clients in philanthropy;
• We work hard to make giving convenient through donor advised funds.

Your community foundation is just that…yours. We place the decision-making for our grants and scholarships in the hands of scores of Pioneer Valley citizens who voluntarily share their expertise.
