Thank you for your interest in the Bainbridge Community Foundation!

Our mission is to encourage, inspire and provide meaningful ways for people to improve and sustain our community. We achieve our mission by focusing on three key strategies:
  • Building permanent funds through gifts of assets from donors

  • Making grants from these funds

  • Engaging in community leadership activities that address a wide range of current and long-term needs on Bainbridge Island.

We look forward to serving you and our community for the next five years, twenty years and beyond, as your partner in community philanthropy.

We’re looking for partners in philanthropy that will support our Bainbridge friends and neighbors during this tough economic time. Click here for more information.
