Thanks to the incredible generosity of donors to The Greater Lynchburg Community Foundation since its founding in 1972, we fulfil our mission to enhance the lives of central Virginians in a multitude of ways.

Through grants and scholarships to nonprofit organizations, The Greater Lynchburg Community Foundation serves citizens of the city of Lynchburg and the counties of Amherst, Appomattox, Bedford, and Campbell. In our last fiscal year alone, GLCF provided over $2.2 million in support for those in need, as well as funding for the arts, education, and historic preservation.

This is only possible through the dedication of our Board of Directors, the banks and investment advisors who work diligently with us, experienced professionals volunteering their time on our committees, and the countless citizens working in and through the many agencies with which we partner. We thank them for their dedication and selflessness.

Most importantly, we live in a community that is committed to helping those in need. All of these factors help to make our region of Virginia a wonderful place to live. 

The establishment of a named fund, or a gift to one of our 320+ existing funds, is a wonderful way to make our community better now and for future generations.

We look forward to serving the community for years to come.
