Hamilton Community Foundation



On Christmas Eve of 1951, a small group of friends gathered to sign incorporation papers that established the Hamilton Community Foundation.


The Hamilton Community Foundation is a result of the interest and efforts of this small group of civic-minded Hamiltonians who envisioned a non-profit, charitable organization which would help improve the quality of life for the community and its citizens.
