Petaluma Community Foundation

Petaluma Community Foundation is devoted to encouraging informed and meaningful philanthropic giving to enhance quality of life in the greater Petaluma area.

Petaluma Community Foundation became Petaluma’s first and only community foundation in 2011, building upon three decades of experience in meeting the critical needs of our community through grants, scholarships and community partnerships totaling over $4 million.

Petaluma Community Foundation is an umbrella organization, which provides a unique service in our community through an annual grant program that spreads one donation among those programs best positioned to improve the lives of youth, families, and seniors in the Petaluma area. See below for our 2011 Grantees.

Petaluma Community Foundation provides a collaborative, transparent and accessible way to invest in our community and change lives.

Petaluma Community Foundation is the most effective way– dollar for dollar–to benefit the greatest number of Petaluma residents.

Petaluma Community Foundation is a 501(c)(3) public charity, Tax ID # 51-0154495, and a long-standing community partnership with Petaluma Health Care District continues to be invaluable in advancing our mission.
