The Washington County Community Foundation (WCCF) is proud to welcome Aliesha Walz as its new President and CEO.

“The Foundation has grown so much, it was difficult finding someone with both development skills and management capabilities,” said Board Chair Michael Anderson. “We believe Ms. Walz is the perfect fit.”

Made possible through the partnership of Range Resources and its many contractors, the Range Resources Good Neighbors Fund at the Washington County Community Foundation (WCCF) has surpassed a major milestone: awarding more than $1.2 million in grants to local first responders since the Fund’s inception in 2018.

Over the past 12 years, the Washington County Community Foundation has cumulatively awarded close to $14 million in unrestricted grants to Washington County charities through WCCF Gives. For some organizations, WCCF Gives has become their primary fundraising event of the year. Others have shared that participation has helped them attract new donors who first learned about their services through the WCCF Gives website.

The WCCF is pleased to announce that it has awarded $500 board development grants to seven local charities to strengthen their leadership and governance. The funding will enable these organizations to engage Nonprofit SideKick, a local consulting firm, for a two-hour board training session focused on the duties, roles, and responsibilities of board members.

The Washington County Community Foundation is pleased to announce the availability of more than $250,000 in post-secondary lifelong learning grants for local students.

The Washington County Community Foundation (WCCF) is currently accepting applications for capacity-building grants ranging from $5,000 to $50,000.
