Barberton Community Foundation’s 2023 Annual Report

Donors Who Give Back

When we ask our donors why they choose to establish funds here, we often hear them say, “I want to give back.” When you decide to give back through the Foundation, we help you to make your philanthropy personal, meaningful, and fulfilling. It’s our privlege to connect donors – and your charitable interests and resources – with local needs.

Newest Grant Partners

The Foundation’s final grant cycle of 2023 focuses on Arts and Community programs. The board approved six grants totaling $93,375.

Giving for Barberton's Future

Did you know Barberton Community Foundation holds more than 100 funds? We thank our generous donors for establishing these funds, and invite the community to learn more about them. 

We envision an improved quality of life for Barberton residents, now and forever.

Celebrating our Scholarship Award Recipients

Congratulations to our newest scholarship recipients! Each year, Barberton Community Foundation partners with Barberton City School District to make more than $400,000 in scholarship awards.

Bringing the History of Barberton to Life

Barberton’s third grade students learn about local history as a part of their social studies curriculum. Now, thanks to a grant from Barberton Community Foundation, local author Conrad Storad has been commissioned by the schools to write a book on local history and update the class and bring the history of Barberton to life.

Our Impact

Whether it’s through our grants and scholarships, or through donations of time, talent and treasure, we are proud of the impact our donors and grant partners have helped us make on the community.
