Grant-making

Annual Grant-making to local nonprofit organizations. HACF serves all communities in Lewis and Clark County and in portions of Broadwater, Powell, and Jefferson County. HACF makes grants out of our endowment distributions, and also manages grants for other entities in our local area through partnerships.

Population(s) Served

Annual Giving Day, typically held the first week in May. Local nonprofits band together to raise funds over a single 24 hour period.

For information, please visit www.greaterhelenagives.org

Population(s) Served

HACF serves as the coordinator for the Helena Nonprofit Executive Network (HNEN), a convening for nonprofit executive directors in the greater Helena area. The network meets monthly between September and June.

Population(s) Served

A holiday event and fundraiser. Participants receive a thermos of hot cocoa or cider, snacks, and a map of the best holiday lights in the area. This event began in 2020, when holiday events were few and far between due to COVID-19. It has been called Helena's not-to-be-missed new tradition.

Population(s) Served

Steven Browning was one of the founding members of the Helena Area Community Foundation, and was well known for his generosity in time, talent, and money in supporting non-profits in Helena. In 2015, HACF introduced the Steve Browning “Spirit of Philanthropy” award given to community members who carry on Steve’s commitment to make the Helena Area a great place to live, work, play and raise a family.
The Foundation and the community has benefited from Steve’s vision, hard work, wisdom and financial support. It is with warm memories and deep gratitude that we recognize his passing in May 2018.

Annually HACF honors an individual or couple who have made a difference in the greater Helena area.
