Nonprofits
NACF is working with more than 60 area nonprofits and we view these groups and the work they do as some of the best examples of reaching out to our communities. These nonprofit agencies provide services and resources that meet pressing community needs and enhance the quality of life in the area. We are continually working on new ways to promote our nonprofits and new ways to offer training opportunities.
We update this list periodically. If you would like to add information about your organization to this list, please contact Northwest Alliance Community Foundation at nacf.hq@gmail.com
