The Peninsula Community Foundation (PCF) is featured on the cover of the April 2024 issue of Stroll The Peninsula!

In 2023, PCF granted $314,000 to 24 charities, including the Lake Norman Community Development Corporation and Hope House. For 2024, PCF aims to raise $500,000 to support over 30 non-profits.

Little Smiles Organization has been able to fulfill many technology wishes for children in local hospitals.

This past week, we were able to gather 17 of our partners and board members for a luncheon in the Lakeside Room at the Peninsula Golf Club. Not only did they share a meal, but also encouragement and inspiration.

Lake Norman Community Health Clinic and the Ada Jenkins Center were able to bring needed dental services to over 150 patients in 2019 and 2020. The Peninsula Community Foundation donated funds to upgrade the air filtration and circulation system to allow for safe use during the height of the COVID pandemic.

I remember vividly the day we delivered a “big check” to Lake Norman Hospice and Palliative Care. Rebecca, our Davidson College intern, went with me. We expected to take a quick picture of the check presentation, give our best wishes, and be on our way.

The Peninsula Community Foundation was recently featured in Lakeside Magazine. Hear from Lakeside and several of our board members about how we truly are uniting a generous community.
