This has been a year of tremendous change, locally and nationally. Yet our community has remained deeply generous. It’s truly reaffirming how our partners keep showing up for one another.
We’re so grateful that you trust Grand Rapids Community Foundation to let equity and collaboration guide all we do. You helped us exceed our $30 million Centennial Campaign fundraising goal to fuel our work. You helped shape our new strategic framework—including a clarified mission, North Star and core values to guide our work. Your trust helps us continue to connect with and learn alongside our community. Together, we invest in the people and causes that make this community unique.
Last year, we invested $20.9M in nonprofit grants and student scholarships. We stewarded our total assets to $562,761,434.
As you read this annual report, we hope you see that when we work together, progress is possible. We hope you are inspired by the resilience of our community and seek meaningful ways to come together to ensure every individual in West Michigan has the opportunity to thrive.
Partners Together,
LaSandra A. Gaddy
