We are embedded in our community in ways that help convene, connect, and grow our collective impact on issues that matter to us all. Our expertise and knowledge of the local nonprofit community helps us understand what a good nonprofit looks like and how to measure its success. That expertise is built upon 20-plus years of experience in awarding competitive grants from our unrestricted dollars to a variety of nonprofits in our region. With that knowledge, we strive to invest philanthropic dollars in the smartest, most impactful way.the community foundation's competitive grants programs include community grants, harrisburg literacy initiative and multiple scholarships. Other local grant making funds, such as women in philanthropy, mary warren fund and the ST. Joseph foundation, work with our team to award funds through a competitive grant process. All of these programs have a rigorous review process and track the outcomes and impact of their grantmaking each year and each have made a measurable, positive impact on the csra.we partner with many of our local nonprofits by managing their endowment assets.
