What We Do Get gifts. Grow funds. Give back. It's what we do here at the Grand Haven Area Community Foundation. We receive gifts from people from all walks of life. We invest the gifts we receive so they grow. We give back by making community investments in programs that help our community thrive. Our mission is to improve and enhance the quality of life in the Tri-Cities area by: • Serving as a leader, catalyst and resource for philanthropy. • Building and holding a permanent and growing endowment for the community's changing needs and opportunities. • Striving for community improvement through strategic grantmaking in such areas as arts & culture, economic & community betterment, education, the environment, and health & human services. • Providing a flexible and cost-effective way for donors to improve their community now and in the future.
