We believe you can make a world of difference in your own backyard. The ideal of local philanthropy has shaped our communities for centuries. It’s the reason we can enjoy many of our parks, museums and libraries today. For example, the Wellesley Free Library was established through the generosity of a philanthropic family in the community. And an enduring generosity will be the reason MetroWest continues to be a wonderful place to call home in the future.

A community foundation is unique in its ability to impact the causes you care most about. There is no better way to shape your world so there is no better place to give than right here.

You don’t have to be wealthy to make a difference. We accept donations of all denominations and use our experience and knowledge of the local organizations to ensure that that gift has the maximum impact on the community possible.
