Support the Capitol Hill Community 
Foundation

We are a community organization funded entirely by contributions from Capitol Hill neighbors, business owners, and friends. We support activities, projects, and groups that enrich the lives of residents and celebrate the history and beauty of our community.

DONATE

The Foundation relies entirely on voluntary donations and seeks your contribution in the form of cash, securities, or real estate. 

APPLY FOR A GRANT

The Foundation awards grants in support of programs that benefit residents of the Capitol Hill neighborhood.

Tell us about your big ideas! We fund large Innovation Grants along with Fall & Spring Grants.

Our Innovation Grants of $5,000 to $15,000 are designed to encourage Capitol Hill organizations to undertake bold new and innovative programs, expand existing ones, and serve new audiences. We award a handful of Innovation Grants each year along with hundreds of Fall and Spring Grants of up to $3,000. See the full description, and use the Fall and Spring Grant application form to apply. Remember to indicate that you are applying for an Innovation Grant.
