Community Foundation of Fayette County



The Community Foundation of Fayette County was founded in 1999 on the same traditional principles as Frederick Goff's original intent. In partnership with donors, non-profit organizations, and the community, the CFFC improves the quality of life for all residents of Fayette County.


The CFFC is an important philanthropic vehicle in the County and builds "community capital" by professionally managing donated funds, linking donors with charities, providing support to non-profits, and addressing community concerns.
