Ulster County

Community Foundation of Ulster County is dedicated to enhancing the quality of life in Ulster County through strategic philanthropy and community engagement.

We engage with local nonprofits, civic leaders, and residents to identify key issues and mobilize resources to develop effective solutions. Grants are made annually to Ulster County nonprofit organizations with missions that support education, food security, health services, environmental stewardship, and cultural enrichment. Funds for these Community Grants are raised through the generosity of individual donors, fund holders, and donations from the annual Garden Party.

By leveraging the collective power of our community, we aspire to build a brighter future for Ulster County—one that is inclusive, resilient, and full of opportunities for all. Join us in our mission to uplift and transform lives in Ulster County and together, let’s create a legacy of generosity and impact.
