Creating a Better Community for Generations to Come.

Greater Toledo Community Foundation Establishes COVID-19 Response Fund; Follows with Community Resilience Fund

Those who wish to contribute to the COVID-19 Response Fund or Community Resilience Fund may do so here.

Lucas County Commissioners introduced DonateTLC.org, a webpage through which you can easily connect to however you wish to donate – time, talent and treasure.

For our local nonprofit organizations, guidelines and information about these funding opportunities can be found here.

Also for our nonprofit partners, here you can listen as Heather Bradley, Director of The Center for Nonprofit Resources, speaks with Patrick Johnston, GTCF Vice President, Community Investments, about the Foundation’s newly-created Community Resilience Fund and what it is intended for, how to apply for funding, and how to donate to the fund.

Helpful resources for nonprofit organizations can be found here.

GTCF will continue operations as normal to the best of our ability. Some employees will be working from home which may cause some responses to be slower, but we will continue providing the level of service our fundholders and community have enjoyed. If we can assist you in any way during this time of crisis, please contact our office during regular business hours M-F, 8:30 am-5 pm, or email toledocf@toledocf.org.
