Welcome to

Greater Pike Community Foundation

For Good. Forever.

That’s the simple purpose of Greater Pike Community Foundation.

There is, perhaps, no better return on investment than witnessing the profound difference a gift can make within one’s local community—in the lives of friends and neighbors—and knowing that these results have permanence and will benefit future generations. The Foundation provides a permanent and personal way to give back to the region we love and have worked so hard to nurture and maintain. Your gift will support those local programs and nonprofit organizations that are most important to you.
