The Community Foundation

Grant-Making

The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee works with local nonprofits to help address unmet needs within our community. The Foundation is particularly interested in ideas that shed new light on the needs and aspirations of Middle Tennesseans with emphasis on providing long-term solutions.

We respect and appreciate the efforts of local nonprofits and their leaders. We believe in their missions. Together we serve as a resource for donors who want to make an impact through their grantmaking.

The majority of grant awards come from Donor-Advised Funds, the largest category of Funds within The Foundation. Click here for a complete list of grantees.
