The mission of the Community Fund for Wellesley is to promote the common good and to benefit all residents of our town. We serve as a permanent source of funding to foster innovation and collaboration in support of community needs and opportunities.

In response to the coronavirus crisis, in early April 2020 we expanded our work to focus on the Community Fund for Wellesley Covid-19 Relief Fund. Through this fund, we have granted nearly $125,000 to our neighbors in need.

The Community Fund for Wellesley was established in 2008 in celebration of Wellesley’s 125th birthday. A dedicated group of town residents had a vision to create a fund that would exist to benefit members of the Wellesley community for generations to come. Over the past 12 years, we have made grants of over $500,000 to more than 30 local non-profits and Wellesley town departments.
