The Gaston Community Foundation strives to make a positive difference in the lives of current and future county residents. To that end, the Foundation is involved in many projects and is continually looking for ways to better our community using the unrestricted funds, which are gifts made to the foundation to be directed by the Board for maximum impact to the community.
Strategic grants and long-term projects are studied and vetted by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors is comprised of concerned citizens that together offer expertise in the various functions of the Foundation.
Managed funds that are charged a fee collectively contribute to the financial ability of the Foundation to make a positive impact in Gaston County. Programs and special projects sponsored by the Community Foundation:
"The Community Foundation matters. It is the repository of more than just our treasure, it is the repository of our hopes and dreams for this community. It is the place where our vision for what our community should be and can be is made real through philanthropy."
