Welcome to Illinois Prairie Community Foundation

We connect people who care with causes that matter. Explore our website and let us know how we can help you fulfill your charitable goals.

Illinois Prairie Community Foundation provides a simple and powerful approach to charitable giving. We make it possible for individuals, families and organizations to custom-design their own named funds and/or support existing funds that reflect their charitable goals and interests.

Women to Women Fund Grows

Illinois Prairie's Women to Women Fund now has 59 full founding members. Thank you to a wonderful group of women who are joining together to help meet the needs of local women and children in our communities. The Women to Women Fund will award its first grants in November, 2010. See our Women to Women page for grant application information.

Save the date of Thursday, November 18th, 2010 at our second annual Celebrating Local Philanthropy Luncheon and non-profit workshop.

Our Community Foundation is in full compliance with National Standards, developed by the Council on Foundations.
As such, we are proud to post this national seal.
