Funding the future of Grays Harbor County with undergraduate scholarships and graduate program loans.
About ScholarshipsPrior to 1994, no community foundation existed in Grays Harbor County. If a donor wanted to leave their estate for the general benefit of local communities, they would have to establish a separate private foundation or contribute to an organization with a narrower focus.
The founding of the Grays Harbor Community Foundation fulfilled the need for people to leave a gift of lasting benefit to our local community. No other public charity in Grays Harbor has the ability to serve all areas of need and is also designed specifically to manage permanent endowments.
The Grays Harbor Community Foundation enables any person interested in improving any part of Grays Harbor County to make a gift for almost any charitable purpose which benefits local residents. The donor may give to an existing fund or establish a named fund, either permanent or temporary. It's up to each donor to determine their fund's purpose and goals, either specific or general.
Year after year, the income from our donor's funds can be used to make grants to local charities who request assistance and to fund scholarships for local students.
The Foundation's professional staff handle the administrative details of all such funds, making it easy and affordable for more people to get involved in long-term philanthropy.
