Community Foundation of New Jersey



The Community Foundation of New Jersey is an alliance of families, businesses, and foundations that work together to create lasting differences in lives and communities — today and tomorrow.


Donors who establish a charitable fund with us have the opportunity to focus charitable dollars on their timetable — on causes, organizations, and communities they believe in — to achieve their desired impact.
