Northfield SHARES, Our Community Foundation

Our Community Foundation

Northfield Shares seeks to sustain and transform the Northfield community by advancing philanthropy, inspiring volunteerism, and promoting collaborative leadership.

Advancing Philanthropy

Northfield Shares empowers donors to fulfill their philanthropic legacies by creating named charitable funds that meet the current and future needs of the community.  Visit our website to learn more about our grants program, or contact us to begin the conversation about how to establish a fund that will best fit your needs.

Inspiring Volunteerism

Northfield Shares inspires community members to give the gift of time to help their Northfield neighbors.  Our new volunteer portal provides the Northfield community with an easy, interactive site for organizations to post volunteer opportunities and for individuals and groups to seek and sign up to help.  Volunteerism in Northfield continues to flourish, providing much needed assistance for many organizations.  Become a volunteer today!

Promoting Collaborative Leadership

Collaborative Leadership could not have been better exemplified than during the Northfield Shares A Dinner in August of 2019, when community members came together to plan, implement, and share a meal together and again in January of 2021 with Northfield Shares an Evening of Entertainment for the entire community to gather "electronically" during a time of quarantine.  

Thank you for supporting Northfield Shares, your nationally accredited foundation!
