History

Our History
In 1991, a small group of civic leaders in Anacortes envisioned a community foundation that could meet their hopes and dreams for a performing arts center. A concert fundraiser featuring Burl Ives and friends created the funds to establish the first endowment for a performing arts center that would become McIntyre Hall.

Donors have also established endowments for libraries, cancer care centers, museums, scholarships and their favorite nonprofit organizations.

Today, the Skagit Community Foundation is one of more than 800 community foundations in the United States, dedicated to improving the lives of people in a defined geographic area. Community foundations bring together the visions, generosity, and resources of individuals, families, and businesses to support their local nonprofit sector.
