Over the past three decades, thousands of Nebraskans in every corner of the state have dedicated their time, talent, treasure and talk to Nebraska Community Foundation’s (NCF) (nebcommfound.org) community building work. Through the years, NCF has remained staunchly committed to its values of keeping its work community centered and locally controlled. NCF’s 24 staff members provide expertise in accounting, legal work, investments, IRS compliance, planned giving, fundraising, communications, marketing, data management, group facilitation, leadership training and decades of experience in complex community development work.
While Nebraska Community Foundation’s impact has grown exponentially across the state, so has its reputation and influence in both the national and international non-profit realm. Not only is the organization known for its innovative community-building work and massive volunteer-led network, it has become increasingly well known for its studies on the intergenerational transfer of wealth as well as statewide youth surveys designed to better understand the perspectives and desires of young Nebraskans as they choose where they want to build their futures.
“We are so proud of everything the NCF network has accomplished in our first 30 years,” said said NCF President and CEO Jeff Yost. “We are also grateful for the persistence of the Nebraskans who set the stage for the next generation of emerging leaders. Community development is a long game, and NCF is proud to play its own unique role in Greater Nebraska’s unfolding story.”
