The Fountain Hills Community Foundation is a 501 (C)(3), investing in nonprofit organizations whose work improves the lives of our youth, seniors, families and community.

Description
The Foundation, established in 1995, as the Sunridge Foundation was the brain- child of local visionaries who saw a community need. Various educational, cultural and humanitarian non-profit organizations needed additional funding if they were to grow and survive.
The Foundation was created as an all-volunteer, 501 (C)(3) non- profit organization (EIN - 86-0800268), to provide financial support to these needy hometown community organizations. In 2006, the Sunridge Foundation evolved into the Fountain Hills Community Foundation.
Since 1995, the Foundation has provided over $1.2 Million in financial support to educational, cultural and humanitarian non-profit organizations in the Fountain Hills area.
In 2020, the Foundation celebrated its 25th year with the announcement of the SunRidge Founder’s Club, a group of volunteers who were active during the first 25 years of the organization’s history.
