Philanthropy in our Community
Meet Local Donors
While there are many reasons that people in our community choose the Foundation as their partner in philanthropy, all of our donors have something in common: they care about our community. Our donors tell us:
“If you’re going to live in a community, you want it to be a good community.”
“This is the place where I live, this is home, and I want to do everything I can to make this place a great place.”
“Giving back to the community is about balancing the equation.”
“We just did what we could to make our community even better.”
Join the Vital Community Movement
The Vital Community Fund is our community’s resource to support the people, ideas and activities that build community vitality in the Peterborough area. Grants from this fund will support charities in the City and County of Peterborough that are working on our community’s top priorities.
By giving together, we can meet today’s challenges and build for tomorrow. Whether you give $10.00 or 10% of your salary, every gift is combined and invested in the fund, building a permanent endowment that we can use to take action and make change, together.
