The Chester County Community Foundation has recently been accredited with Community Foundations National Standards®; the highest standards for philanthropic excellence. 

We work to support the causes our community cares about, such as human services, health, education, arts, and the environment. National Standards accreditation demonstrates that we meet the highest standards in philanthropy and reinforces our commitment to continuing this important work together, right here in Chester County. 

Community Foundations National Standards is not mandatory. We chose to go above and beyond by affirming our commitment to excellence and accountability. Our accreditation provides assurance that we have sound policies and practices in place. In short, it means we meet the highest standards for local giving. 

To receive accreditation with National Standards, the Chester County Community Foundation submitted our policies and procedures to a rigorous review of 26 National Standards in six key areas of community foundation operations, including donor services, investment management, grantmaking and administration.  

The Community Foundations National Standards® program was established in 2000 in cooperation with the Council on Foundations. For more information about National Standards, visit www.cfstandards.org.
