Who We Are
Established in 2019 by the National Alliance of Christian Home Education Leadership, a tax-exempt 501(c)3 organization, the Homeschool Community Foundation was created to fund innovative projects that increase the cultural impact of homeschooling.
By definition, a community foundation is a publicly supported philanthropic institution that uniquely serves three public segments: donors, the non-profit sector, and the foundation’s designated community as a whole. Dedicated to growth and posterity, HCF is the homeschool community’s permanent endowment for public good.
