Influencing & connecting generosity

We’re all about Flint & Genesee County’s future.

The Community Foundation of Greater Flint enables people with philanthropic interests to easily and effectively support the issues they care about.

Flint Neighborhoods

For 30 years, we’ve provided small grants with big impact in Flint neighborhoods through the Neighborhoods Small Grants Program.

Flint Promise

More than a promise, the Flint Promise scholarship program offers Flint graduates a guided, resource-filled pathway to post-secondary education.

Community Funds

A community foundation's success is measured by how well it reflects and serves its communities, like in Genesee County, where endowed funds from places like Clio, Davison, Fenton, Flushing, and Grand Blanc unite local leaders to address needs.

Flint Center for Educational Excellence

Working in partnership with community, we are leading and coordinating six cooperative efforts to help Flint kids improve academic outcomes and well-being.
