The Community Foundation of Mendocino County is a county-wide nonprofit that manages permanent charitable funds created through gifts and bequests from individuals, families, businesses, and other organizations. Its purpose is to offer effective avenues for people to contribute to the well-being of Mendocino County by engaging donors, awarding grants, and acting as a catalyst for positive community change. In practice, it connects donors, nonprofits, civic entities, and other philanthropic players to coordinate resources and opportunities for local impact. The organization is locally led, with a board, staff, and volunteers drawn from across Mendocino County’s seven geographic regions. Based in Ukiah, California, it provides leadership, expertise, and capital to help build local resources and support community initiatives. In December 2024 it launched a Mobile Spay & Neuter Van to bring essential services to communities across the county.
