Making An Impact In Our Community

We are a community-giving foundation dedicated to Inspiring Positive Change. Through strategic philanthropy, we empower individuals and organizations, fostering inclusive growth while creating a lasting impact on our community.

The Westminster Community Foundation focuses on four key areas to make a lasting impact:
‍
1.     Bridging the Gap: We fund essential services and cutting-edge solutions to critical issues facing our     community. 
2.     Fueling Prosperity for All: We give everyone a fair chance to thrive, regardless of background.                
3.     Empowering Our Future: We invest in programs that equip our youth and strengthen the voice of our community.
4.     Leaving a Lasting Legacy: We build a stronger, more resilient Westminster for now and for future generations.
With your help and resources, the Westminster Community Foundation will support projects, initiatives, groups and nonprofits within each focus area that build a thriving Westminster for all!
