Introduction

Dear Friends of TTCF,

Over the last year, Tahoe Truckee Community Foundation (TTCF) has closely monitored the health of our regional nonprofit community. We have stayed close to organizational leaders and the needs of these local missions. We’ve learned of unexpected stressors or variables that conflict with a board’s strategic direction or the executive director’s vision. Of course, these challenges are a microcosm of the bigger picture across communities throughout the state and country and are impacting our philanthropic sector.

TTCF’s response has been to invest heavily in collaborative infrastructure within our region, including a $1,000,000 commitment to the Middle Truckee River Forest Watershed Partnership, led by the Truckee River Watershed Council. Streamlining philanthropic systems through our “no competition” trust-based grantmaking. Advocating for our region as demonstrated in a successful state visit with the leaders of the soon-to-be-dedicated California housing agency.

Finally, with a successful track record of deploying financial capital for community impact, as a place-based community foundation, we accomplish this work with the energy and generosity of our donors! We are grateful for those who choose to leave something behind in a Legacy Gift or are considering how to maximize their giving with forthcoming changes to federal tax policy. Our philanthropic mission focuses on regional strategies that are stewarded by nonprofit leaders and volunteers, and is an investment in the civic infrastructure to protect and serve this place for generations to come!

With gratitude and ever forward,

Stacy Caldwell, CFRE
