Influencing & connecting generosity

We connect generosity to Genesee County's needs.

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

Flint Neighborhoods

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

Grand Blanc Relief Fund

In the wake of the tragic events at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Grand Blanc, Michigan, the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation and Community Foundation of Greater Flint are establishing the Grand Blanc Relief Fund to provide support for victims, survivors, their families, and the broader community.

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 Kids Fund

Since 2016, the Flint Kids Fund has invested over $15 million in programs aimed to address and mitigate the impact of lead poisoning and trauma suffered by many children in Flint.
