Ways to Give
When you give through the Seward Community Foundation, you invest directly in the communities of Seward and Moose Pass.
Your generosity supports local organizations and projects today while helping build permanent resources for the future.
Choose Where Your Gift Makes an Impact
SCF offers several ways to direct your giving. You can support our flexible community grantmaking, help strengthen SCF for the future, or give to a fund created around a particular local need or interest.
Seward Community Foundation Fund
Our flagship granting endowment gives SCF the flexibility to respond to the changing needs of Seward and Moose Pass. Earnings from the fund support competitive grants for local nonprofits working across a wide range of community priorities, from education and youth programs to health, human services, arts, and more.
SCF Operating Endowment Fund
This fund helps sustain the work of SCF itself and strengthens our ability to serve the community over the long term. Earnings support grant programs, outreach, communications, community events, day-to-day operations, and training opportunities that help SCF board members and local nonprofit leaders build skills, strengthen organizations, and increase their impact.
