CFMC envisions a strong and prosperous Merced County.
Merced County is our home.
We have a deep understanding of the challenges and unlimited potential of the region. Our dedicated partnerships with local donors, nonprofits, and community members, contribute to a strong and prosperous future for our valley.
Our philosophy.
We believe that whole county, systemic, transformation is possible through strategic philanthropy. Merced, as a rural county, provides philanthropists an opportunity to impact deep, lasting, community transformation with fewer dollars.
Our strategic vision.
CFMC honors its role as a philanthropic steward and is leveraging new partnerships to launch capacity-building and technical assistance initiatives. We have a vision of learning from—and working directly with—entire communities in Merced County to develop new ideas that catalyze change and can be replicated countywide.
Committed to the vitality and well-being of everyone in Merced County, our goal is to promote equal access to opportunities, power, and resources for everyone—especially communities of color and other under-resourced communities.
