Greetings from the Columbus Area Community Foundation (CACF)! We’re here to help you support the charitable causes that matter to you in an effective, enduring, and tax-efficient way.
CACF was founded in 1991 by a visionary group of local businessmen. Since then, we’ve given more than $1 million in grants and scholarships to support local nonprofit organizations and students. We are an affiliate of the Community Foundation of Southeast Kansas and a Kansas Association of Community Foundations member.
