Funds at ACF

Funds at ACF are created by individuals, nonprofit organizations, and family foundations to foster and encourage philanthropy in Alaska. If you are interested in opening a fund at ACF, go to our start a fund page.

When you give to one of the funds below, you create a philanthropic ripple effect that is felt across Alaska. Whether it’s $25 or $250,000, your investment in Alaska makes a real difference and builds continuing support that benefits Alaska now and in the future.

To find a specific fund to which you wish to donate, enter the fund’s name. To narrow your search, use fund categories, such as “scholarship” or “field of interest.”

To search for a cause that you care about, you can use the “categories,” “interest,” and “region” dropdowns to narrow your search.

If you wish to mail a check: for the security of our donors and to avoid banking complications, all checks must be made payable to The Alaska Community Foundation or ACF. Checks will be stamped “void” and returned to the donor if this is not the case. The fund you are directing your donation to should be named in the memo.

Thank you for giving through ACF and for all you do for your community.
