Central Valley Community Foundation is a Fresno, California-based community foundation that deploys philanthropic capital across California’s Central Valley, serving Merced, Mariposa, Madera, Fresno, Tulare and Kings counties. Founded in 1966, it supports nonprofit and mission-driven work in community impact, arts and culture, education, environmental conservation, health, and human services, making it most relevant to organizations seeking grant or philanthropic capital rather than conventional venture funding.
