Community Can’t Be Cancelled

 The Lafayette Community Foundation (LCF) has joined the Community Can’t Be Canceled Campaign with a commitment to award grants to local nonprofits addressing increased community needs and sharing other ways to support our business community during these unprecedented times. We are proud to partner with Acalanes High School, Lafayette Chamber of Commerce, Lafayette Partners in Education (LPIE) and the City of Lafayette in this effort.

LCF has received a record of more than 20 Excellence Grants applications during this grant cycle and several requests from the community on how to help. LCF is responding by increasing funding through our COVID-19 Community Matching Campaign. Now through April 30, LCF will match every dollar that is donated up to an additional $25,000 increasing our total giving to up to $100,000 to nonprofits that provide essential services in the community.

To support local nonprofits please consider making a donation ONLINE NOW at lafayettecf.org or by mailing a check to Lafayette Community Foundation, P.O. Box 221, Lafayette, CA. 94549.

During these times, it is also vitally important that we support our local business community. For updated information about businesses and restaurants that are open for online purchasing or take-out, please visit the Lafayette Chamber of Commerce at Chamber/open. Information is being updated regularly so make it part of your day to check in and support our merchant community!
