Building a Brighter Future, Together
About Us
An affiliate of the Springfield Foundation, the Champaign Community Foundation (CCF) exists to strengthen our community by listening to local needs and directing resources where they matter most.
When you give, you’re not just supporting grants to programs – you’re investing in brighter futures for our neighbors, from families in crisis, to students, seniors, and beyond.
Guided by a spirit of service and collaboration, we work alongside our community in Champaign County to create meaningful, lasting change.
Donations
We accept gifts of various sizes and types from private citizens, local corporations, other foundations, and government agencies. Nearly every type of gift, real estate, closely held stock, artwork, and insurance, can be contributed.
We invite you to be part of that commitment. Your support, whether as a donor, volunteer, or advocate, helps us respond to the needs we hear and create the change we all hope to see.

Your generosity doesn’t just make a difference – it builds a better Champaign County today, tomorrow, and for generations to come!
Putting Your Support to Work
The Champaign Community Foundation endowment fund is invested and generates income that is used to provide support to nonprofit organizations in our community.
Grants are made on behalf of our donors, at the suggestion of our Board of Advisors. Acting as a conduit, we bring together individuals who wish to support organizations providing services to our community.
Our Work
Our mission is rooted in the values of service, collaboration, and impact.
As one board member shared, “I have been looking for an opportunity to become involved in an organization whose mission was service-minded. Serving on the Foundation gives me an opportunity to give back to the community that has provided me with multiple opportunities in both my personal and professional life.”
That spirit, of gratitude and responsibility, is the foundation of our work.
