Community Foundation of North Central Washington

We assist donors by helping identify their specific charitable and financial goals and we provide grants and scholarships that help groups and people address critical issues in North Central Washington.


The Community Foundation is a charitable community trust organized as a nonprofit in 1986 from the sale proceeds of nonprofit Chelan County Medical Service Corporation (a Blue Shield Plan). The Foundation is a permanent collection of more than 240 different charitable funds supported by the general public and serving the three-county area of Chelan, Douglas and Okanogan counties, a population of about 141,000.
