The Page/Lake Powell, Tuba City and Greater Williams Community Funds are component funds of the Arizona Community Foundation of Flagstaff, established to serve organizations in these communities. Community funds are endowments, permanent funds in which the principal is invested and a portion of the returns used to award grants and scholarships with the guidance of a steering committee composed of local leaders. Individuals, families and businesses can give to community funds to grow them and increase their grantmaking capacity.
