The NCCF is the only community-based, tax-deductible fund that makes grants available that serve the educational & humanitarian needs in Nelson County, Virginia. (NCCF)* is an all-volunteer nonprofit that was started in 2000 by concerned community members to support our neighbors in need throughout the county. NCCF’s founders saw a need to channel charitable giving to local nonprofit groups targeting at-risk populations. To date, NCCF has awarded $1.95 million in grants to 76 local agencies and programs that assist individuals with:
• Obtaining preventative health, dental & vision care, and prescription drugs;
• Paying rent & utilities, and repairing homes of our elderly and people with disabilities;
• Combating child hunger;
• Preparing for & affording college;
• Fighting substance abuse;
• Expanding environmental education; and addressing immediate needs, such as supporting COVID-19 vaccination efforts, and blood drives through the American Red Cross
Where does NCCF get its support? Funding for our grants comes largely from neighbors helping neighbors, that is, generous donors who live throughout this beautiful county of farms, orchards, and mountains. Please consider giving to NCCF, so we can continue to support the vital work of other nonprofits serving the Nelson County community. Please choose to give here. For grant info and more go to:
