Foundation

Founded 2022

At the heart of our mission, the Gesa Community Foundation (GCF) dedicates itself to nurturing and enriching the lives within our neighborhoods. As stewards of philanthropy, we are committed to overseeing and channeling the generous spirit of giving into transformative actions.

Our focus lies where need meets hope—enhancing the well-being of our community members by aligning with charitable partners who invoke positive change. We focus on projects that uplift our local heroes—the educators, firefighters, healthcare workers, law enforcement officers, and Veterans who teach, protect, heal, and serve us.  

Together, we can build a legacy of giving that echoes through generations and fosters a spirit of collective prosperity.
 
The Gesa Community Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
