With a Preference Fund, gifts address a broad range of local needs - including future needs that often cannot be anticipated at the time a gift is made. VCF evaluates all aspects of community well-being: arts and culture, economic development, education, environment, health and human services, neighborhood revitalization, and more.

The flexibility of a preference fund enables the Valley Community Foundation's program experts to respond to the community's most pressing needs, today and tomorrow.
