"Growing Community. Growing Philanthropy." For 25 years, Kern Community Foundation has served as a charitable resource for local donors and corporations, generating capital to provide philanthropic solutions for Kern County. Home to nearly 200 charitable funds with over $40 million in assets, we've awarded about $30 million in grants and scholarships. Our two main initiatives are Nonprofit Strengthening and Educational Attainment. We help nonprofits increase their visibility, capacity and sustainability through collaboration, networking, training, grantmaking, online resources, philanthropic response during crises, and more. We work to ensure a cradle-to-career pipeline of success for Kern County's children and youth.
