NCF works with 1,500 volunteer leaders of 258 affiliated funds located in communities across the state. NCF is a decentralized system that empowers local leadership, while providing centralized technical support and education. NCF teaches local leaders how to raise their own funds and make their own grants based on their local development priorities. NCF provides training, strategy development and gift planning assistance. Professional staff members handle all the financial and investment management, receipting, disbursements, tax compliance - responsibilities that could overwhelm leaders of the small communities and organizations served.
