Initiatives & Impact

Just like you, Hutchinson Community Foundation is passionate about making a difference in the Hutchinson and Reno County area.

We’ve been working for more than 30 years to bring changemakers together around the greatest opportunities to create a thriving community for all people:

Identify Gaps

We listen for the initiatives and causes that need support, and we work to leverage our moral, social, intellectual, reputational and financial capital to help partners make progress.

Connect Donors

We connect donors with opportunities we learn about so they can support issues that otherwise might not receive adequate funding.

Create Solutions

We work closely with nonprofits and other stakeholders to create innovative solutions to adaptive challenges, so our community becomes more connected, resilient and thriving.

A strong, diverse and inclusive local economy

Like many communities throughout the country, Reno County has experienced economic disruptions that have ignited a determination to place our bets in local people, places and ideas to preserve the areas we hold dear, provide upward mobility for all and create an inclusive community resilient enough to weather the shifts in our ever-changing world.
