Welcome

At The Columbus Foundation we see the power of philanthropy each and every day—and the extraordinary impact it is making in our community.

We are the trusted philanthropic advisor to more than 1,600 individuals, families, and businesses who want to make a difference in the lives of others through charitable giving. For 64 years, people from all walks of life have partnered with the Foundation and created unique named funds to support the causes they care about. We offer unparalleled resources, services, and community knowledge to help donors realize the most informed and effective charitable giving possible.

Our home is on the site of the former Governor’s Mansion. We completed restoration of the public spaces of the mansion in 2007, and our expansion project will be completed this year to help us better serve our donors and the community.

We are your community foundation. Let us know how we can add value to your philanthropic experience. We welcome you to The Columbus Foundation!
