At the DeKalb County Community Foundation, we are a small team of professionals who love our community and love what we do. Who we are and what we do is clearly defined in our mission, vision, and core commitments. Since 1993, the Community Foundation has seen an increase in Fund impact and assets, resulting in expanded services. We are excited to begin another period of growth as we announce upcoming staffing changes and open positions.
