Overview

Ashland County Community Foundation Ashland County Community Foundation didn’t begin, as many community foundations do, with a large gift from a single wealthy donor. Our foundation was started in 1995 by a group of charitably-minded community members who each gave what they could. Their goal was to encourage Ashland County residents to invest their charitable gifts in the future of Ashland County. Since then, ACCF has become a trusted philanthropic partner for thousands of families and individuals who want to invest in the future of Ashland County through endowment. ACCF now has over 700 endowment funds under administration. More than $35 million has been given back to the Ashland County community in the form of grants, scholarships and individual fund distributions.
