In Muscatine County, we aspire to be a vibrant place with equitable opportunity and high quality of life for all.

This takes a purposeful, coordinated effort where organizations and community champions are working in concert. That’s why the Community Foundation of Greater Muscatine exists. We unite people, ideas, and resources to address community challenges and create opportunities.

Established in 1999, the Community Foundation of Greater Muscatine was among the first 100 in the nation to be confirmed in compliance with National Standards for U.S. Community Foundations. Our Board and organizational leadership collaboratively embrace taking a bold, future-focused aim at understanding and strengthening infrastructural frameworks to overcome challenges.

OUR VISION

A vibrant Muscatine County region that provides equitable opportunity and a high quality of life for all.

OUR PURPOSE

We engage people, leverage resources, and inspire solutions to address the community’s biggest challenges.
