The Community Foundation of the New River Valley Annual Report 2024-2025

CELEBRATING 30 YEARS IN STYLE

Throughout 2024, we celebrated 30 years of the CFNRV, culminating in a big celebration at our October gala. In addition to reflecting on all we accomplished and gathering with supporters like you, we worked together to unlock a generous matching donation to the Higher Impact Fund. Established by the CFNRV’s Board of Directors, The Higher Impact Fund provides annual, flexible dollars to support all CFNRV priorities. In honor of our 30th anniversary, the Secular Society, a private NRV philanthropy, created a match to challenge our donors: once the broader community raised $200,000 for the fund, the Secular Society would donate an additional $100,000. In December, we met that match! To date, this fund has raised more than $310,000 from nearly 70 donors. Thank you to each one of you for your generosity and support of our work. We look forward to working together for many years to come.
