The Clermont Community Fund

Making a Positive Impact in Clermont County

In 1993, GCF teamed with local leaders through the Clermont 20/20 initiative to establish The Clermont Community Fund of The Greater Cincinnati Foundation. This permanent endowment brought together diverse donors with a common goal of enhancing the quality of life in this community.

Through the contributions of local residents, the leadership of the Fund’s Advisory Board and the resources of GCF, grants totaling nearly $7,000,000 have been awarded to organizations and programs serving Clermont County.

Recent grant recipients include:

• Clermont Senior Services: in-home and community based services which enable older adults to live independently;
• Clermont Counseling Center: advocacy and safe, affordable housing alternatives for the mentally ill;
• Child Focus, Inc: early learning, mental health, school, and foster care services.

Creating a Healthy and Vital Community

Since its inception, The Clermont Community Fund has been making a positive impact in the area, helping create a healthy and vital community by enhancing the quality of life for all.

For donors, The Clermont Community Fund offers:

• Simplicity and flexibility in charitable giving
• Maximum tax advantages
• The knowledge that the gift will benefit the community in perpetuity

Your tax-deductible contributions to the Fund generate earnings that are given back to the community in the form of grants.

Clermont Community Fund Advisory Board

An advisory board, comprised of Clermont neighbors and business people, oversees the Fund and the disbursement of grants.
