WE ARE ROOTED IN LOCAL GIVING
The Community Foundation and United Way of Volusia-Flagler Counties (CF/UWVFC), established in 1941, unites donors, nonprofits, and volunteers to create lasting change. By connecting generous resources with urgent local needs, we strengthen families, support trusted nonprofits, and build thriving communities across Volusia and Flagler Counties.
Through personalized giving strategies—including legacy and planned giving—we help donors make a greater impact today while building resources that will sustain our community for generations to come. These funds power programs that promote literacy and career training, and provide critical support for veterans, domestic abuse survivors, and families facing food insecurity.
Together, we’re turning generous giving into needed action—and creating a stronger, more resilient community for all.
