Investing in Our Region

NCCF has launched a $10 million campaign for northern Chautauqua to build Community Funds to ensure that northern Chautauqua thrives as a vibrant, prosperous community that offers promise for generations to come. 

We invite you to join the many donors who have already committed more than $6.5 million to the community’s future. Through the power of collective philanthropy, we’ll work together to sustain and move our community forward.
