The mission of the Sandusky/Erie County Community Foundation is to develop a
permanent endowment, to identify and respond to community needs, and to facilitate
charitable giving.
The Sandusky/Erie County Community Foundation was incorporated in 1995. In the
twelve years since its founding, the Foundation has grown from assets of $1.8
million to more than $14 million today. The Foundation has awarded more than
$2.5 million in grants and scholarships for the benefit of Erie County residents.
