Wyoming Foundation
For nearly 50 years, the Wyoming Foundation has been a force for good in Wyoming County.
By creating positive community impact through the generosity of individuals and families who are passionate about giving back to Wyoming County, the Wyoming Foundation serves as a trusted partner for those who wish to support meaningful causes and organizations today and in the future.
Guided by a group of dedicated local volunteers and community leaders, the Wyoming Foundation is committed to bringing people together, connecting partners and sparking collaboration to respond to the county’s changing needs.
One of the ways it does this is through its annual competitive grants process, where funding is distributed to support local nonprofit organizations.
The 2024 process started with more than $32,000 available that created a ripple effect of giving. Additional co-funding support from clients nearly doubled the impact, totaling almost $64,000 that went to 14 organizations.
