Annual Report to the Community
A Message from our President and CEO:
In almost every way, 2021 was a record-breaking year for the Scranton Area Community Foundation. The Foundation welcomed more new charitable funds, awarded more grants and scholarships, and received more overall charitable donations than in any other year in its 67 year history. As the pandemic wore on, so many of you recognized the continuing economic and social challenges facing our communities, and responded with extraordinary generosity. For that, we are very grateful.
Thanks to your support and that of other donors and partners, the Scranton Area Community Foundation is better positioned to respond to the urgent and critical needs of our community. Guided by our strategic framework, and the key pillars that frame our important work, the Foundation significantly expanded its impact to serve our region’s growing needs.
None of this would have been possible without the support of our donors, community leaders, and partners. Thank you for supporting our important work together to build a more vibrant and equitable community.
With Appreciation,
Laura Ducceschi
Scranton Area Community Foundation President and CEO
