Program areas at Community Foundation of St Joseph County

Our largest program area is Health & Human Services. The lingering effects of the Covid pandemic, economic uncertainty, and record inflation continue to impact families throughout St. Joseph County. Our funding supports food security, including local food pantries, Unity Gardens, and Cultivate Culinary; housing, such as the Center for the Homeless, Hope Ministries, St. Margaret's House, and Habitat for Humanity; organizations that serve specific vulnerable communities, such as REAL Services, LOGAN, Reins of Life, and Oaklawn; and dozens of other organizations that, through their good work, make our community a better place to live.

Our grants helped launch a summer music camp in collaboration with South Bend Symphony Youth Orchestra, Fischoff National Chamber Music Association, and St. Mary's College; the transformation of The Worker's Home at The History Museum; and public media efforts through WNIT and WVPE. In total, we awarded more than $1.38 million in support of the arts, showing our commitment to the tremendous creative talent of our community.
