The Columbus Foundation has long invested in community research to help enhance community knowledge across a range of important issues, such as mental healthcare, digital equity and inclusion, youth services, aging populations, and homelessness. This research serves to educate the community, inform regional priorities, identify local assets and pain points, and help local nonprofits determine where to focus their programming.

Through the sale of services or products, revenue fuels other programming opportunities for the nonprofit. Funding is available to support social enterprises operated by nonprofits.
