HOW WE MAKE AN IMPACT
Founded in 1999, the Community Foundation of Orange and Sullivan currently manages more than 386 separate component funds and has distributed over $26 million in charitable grants and educational scholarships since the organization was established. These numbers continue to grow as more people step forward as generous participants in the vision of a stronger community. There are many ways of giving to and through the Community Foundation. Funds can be established for a variety of charitable purposes and can support one or multiple charities.
GIVING OPPORTUNITIES

Gifts of any level are also gratefully accepted to support our continued good work. You can donate directly to any of our 386 component funds, which strengthen our communities in a variety of ways. Starting a fund here at the Community Foundation at year-end is a tax-friendly way to support your favorite charities. To learn more, visit cfosny.org.
