Willmar Area Community Foundation

The Willmar Area Community Foundation started in 1998 to foster charitable giving opportunities in the region and better meet the needs of the Willmar area community. Today, the Foundation seeks to attract charitable funds and to reinvest these funds in efforts that enhance the quality of life of residents in our area.

WACF is an affiliate of the Central Minnesota Community Foundation, a regional foundation based in St. Cloud. This partnership enables WACF to cost effectively provide a wide variety of services to donors, their professional advisors and nonprofit organizations in the region.
