Since 1996, the Community Foundation of the Dan River Region has assisted in enhancing and enriching the lives of the people in our area. This year alone, your generosity has enabled us to give more than $1.3 million in grants to local charities and scholarships to area students. Unselfish donors, like you, have made it possible for us to continue to strive to live up to our vision of recognizing the needs and providing resources to improve the quality of life in our area and to serve your wishes. Thank you for sharing in that vision and making it possible for your Foundation to continue its mission of improving and enriching lives. The Community Foundation now has assets greater than $27 million. Your ongoing generosity enables us to continue to serve the Dan River Region with your support. Some highlights of our work this past year include: • Receiving gifts of $839,632 from hundreds of donors. • Awarding 69 student scholarships of more than $145,000. • Awarding grants of $1,210,416 to 125 organizations. • Working with donors to add 6 new endowment funds. • Continuing to build the Fund for Halifax County. • Convening a quarterly Funders Forum of area foundations. • Serving as the fiscal agent for National Fund for Workforce Solutions-Dan River Region Collaborative, which had program expenses of $401,991. • Selling our 6,200th engraved brick for the local Veterans Memorial. As I hope you have heard, we recently announced the creation of The RiverBank Fund, a major initiative dedicated to the revitalization of our Dan River. The Board and staff have been very busy for the last six months developing the framework for the fund. Our goal is to raise $4 - $6 million within two years, and we hope to be able to make our first grants by Spring 2015. See page 3 for further details, including how you can participate. Please continue to support your Community Foundation and in doing so, make our region a better and more wholesome place to reside, work, and play. Best wishes,
Confirmed by the National Standards for U.S. Community Foundations in operational quality, donor service and accountability.

What is The Community Foundation? The Community Foundation of the Dan River Region is an independent, public charity established in September 1996 by a steering committee of local civic leaders to gather permanent funds to support our area. While the Foundation works with donors to establish funds to benefit any geographic area, our primary service area is Danville/Pittsylvania County, Virginia and Caswell County, North Carolina. Donations are also being sought to build up resources for South Boston/ Halifax County, with consideration being given to other neighboring counties. Community foundations are established to manage a collection of separate funds created by individuals and corporations – a community of donors – to enhance the quality of life in a local area. These funds are pooled and invested under the direction of a board of directors comprised of community leaders. Income from the funds is distributed in the form of grants and scholarships. The first community foundation was created in 1914 in Cleveland, Ohio. There are now more than 700 community foundations nationwide, controlling aggregate assets in excess of $25 billion. Community foundations are the fastest growing form of philanthropy in America today and often are in the vanguard of charitable giving. The Community Foundation is fully tax-exempt as an organization described in Sections 501(c)(3) and 170(b)(A)(vi) of the Internal Revenue Code.
Our Vision
To recognize needs and provide resources to improve the quality of life in our community and to serve the wishes of our donors.
Our Mission
To improve and enrich the lives of people in our community by encouraging the generosity of donors; by receiving, managing and distributing important resources; and by meeting a variety of charitable purposes in our community.

Community Foundation announces creation of RiverBank Fund The Community Foundation of the Dan River Region (CFDRR) announced recently that it has established the RiverBank Fund to gather substantial donations throughout Virginia and North Carolina earmarked for the protection and revitalization of the Dan River. “The waterway and its basin are a source of great regional pride, even with a history of neglect and a recent coal ash spill,” explained Debra Dodson, executive director of The Community Foundation. “A special initiative called the RiverBank Fund has been started to celebrate and revitalize the Dan and to offer the long-term care and appreciation the River deserves.” The RiverBank Fund’s mission is to steward resources and provide community support to assure The Dan River is beautiful, protected and central to the recreational and economic well-being of our region for generations to come. According to CFDRR interviews, residents and businesses from Patrick, Henry, Pittsylvania, Halifax, Mecklenburg counties (VA) and Stokes, Caswell, Rockingham counties (NC), as well as the City of Danville and beyond, want the Dan River and its tributaries to thrive. The Fund will help in five fundamental ways: 1. Responsibly address water quality for regional residents and companies. 2. Encourage new development that ecologically features the River. 3. Improve the cleanliness of the River and the Basin and help protect it from environmental threats. 4. Increase access to the River for family-friendly sports, recreation and entertainment. 5. Effectively promote the River to build regional pride and encourage tourism. A regional advisory committee is being formed to help guide the development of the fund and the strategic disbursement of grant funds. Donations to the RiverBank Fund are being sought from individuals, organizations and businesses that have interest in helping to improve the quality and caliber of life all along the Dan River. Donations may be made online at www.riverbankfund.org.
