who we are
Four Corners Community Foundation (4CCF), formerly TS Community Foundation, is a 501(c)(3) organization designed to help giving people achieve more with their donations. Founded in 1999, 4CCF is committed to developing long-term prosperity in the local communities, and a charitable process which gives donors more financial flexibility.
In 2019 4CCF became an affiliate of Community Foundation for Western Iowa, and as partners will continue efforts to spur growth and prosperity in southwest Iowa. Our partnership with Community Foundation for Western Iowa provides tax incentives to donors such as the Endow Iowa Tax Credit.
