Strengthening our community's social fabric begins with forging meaningful connections and relationships. On the blog, Kate Oliphint, Director of the Center for HumanKindness at The Columbus Foundation, discusses the powerful role of social connections on individual and community well-being.

The Columbus Foundation, its Supporting Foundations, and its donors have long supported Catholic Social Services through a variety of grants—including targeted investments to support the operation and renovation of the Our Lady of Guadalupe Center, increase recruitment for the Foster Grandparent Program, and help launch the pilot of Stay the Course®, among numerous other investments. In recognition of the organization’s contributions to strengthening and improving the community, The Columbus Foundation also named Catholic Social Services one of the 5 Nonprofits to Watch in 2017.

The Columbus Foundation is transitioning to a new technology platform designed to further strengthen our provision of service, community information, and financial reporting to you. As part of that transition, we’ve created a guide and other resources to help those who manage funds navigate the Fund Portal.
