Whidbey Community Foundation (WCF) is pleased to announce its fourth annual grant cycle will be opening on July 1. Any organization that operates with a charitable status or for a charitable purpose on Whidbey Island is eligible to apply for a grant. The organization does not need to have a headquarters or physical presence on Whidbey, so long as services are provided here.

COVID-19 vaccines are actively being administered, Washington State is opening back up, and yet many Whidbey neighbors are struggling from the impacts of the continued pandemic. Goosefoot Community Fund and Whidbey Community Foundation have partnered to raise funds for the Whidbey Island Essential Needs Program with a mission to keep our Whidbey neighbors housed, keep them working and help them through emergencies.

On May 18, 2021, cities, states, elected officials, influencers and community groups are commemorating the third annual National Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Day Against Bullying and Hate, led by anti-bullying nonprofit Act To Change. Whidbey Community Foundation is committed to ending bullying and hate in the AAPI community and is proud to join this movement.

Whidbey Community Foundation (WCF) envisions a more vibrant, healthy, and unified Whidbey Island community. Our mission is to improve the quality of life on Whidbey Island so those who call Whidbey home can thrive now and in the future. We cannot achieve this future without acknowledging and reconciling our past and present.
