ACF Stories
The Austin Community Foundation has served our community and surrounding areas for 35 years. Together with our fund holders, ACF has planted seeds of philanthropy that enhance and preserve the unique character of Central Texas.
In that time, we have touched literally every part of Austin, granting more than $125 million to nonprofit organizations.
Whether it's the visual or performing arts, animal welfare, children, the elderly, education, the environment, healthcare or human services, the Austin Community Foundation helps keep Austin a very special place to live now - and for the future.
