Welcome to NDCF, building brighter futures since 1976.
"Do what you can, with what you have, where you are." - Theodore Roosevelt
North Dakotans helping North Dakotans. The North Dakota Community Foundation was formed with that purpose in mind - to create an easy way for North Dakotans to help their neighbors and friends, now and in the future, through charitable giving and promoting philanthropy here at home. We currently administer over 750 charitable funds, including 69 different community foundations in the state. If you want to support your home town forever, we can help you do that. If you want to support a charitable organization that speaks to your heart, we can do that, too. If you want to create a donor-advised fund and determine which organizations to support every year, we're the place to go. We exist to help you help others.
Our Mission
To improve the quality of life for North Dakota's citizens through charitable giving and promoting philanthropy.
