Since 1963, when Stark Community Foundation was formed, hundreds of thousands of people's lives have been enriched through grants and scholarships totaling $136 million. Stark Community Foundation has been the community's trusted partner in giving to over 650 individuals, families, businesses and nonprofits that have created funds to impact the lives of others through the most effective philanthropy possible.
The role of the Foundation has grown from simple grantmaker to a community leader seeking long-term solutions to diverse community challenges.
