Whitefish Community Foundation, recently celebrated as the 2024 Kalispell Chamber of Commerce Nonprofit of the Year, is leading the way in giving back to the Flathead Valley community.  Join us as we unlock the secrets behind their  success, with insights from Alan Davis, the foundation's President and CEO. Having transitioned from the Whitefish Legacy Partners to leading this influential organization, Alan shares how his unique perspective as a former grant applicant has shaped the foundation's community-driven mission. Learn how the 2024 Great Fish Community Challenge shattered records, pulling in $6.68 million for 80 local nonprofits, and explore the strategic efforts to address critical issues like youth homelessness through innovative initiatives such as the Kids Fund.

Our conversation highlights how the foundation's ripple effect is transforming lives across Flathead Valley.  With assets surpassing $65 million and over $13.7 million granted in the past year alone, the foundation is not just a local powerhouse but a beacon of collaboration and unity. As the holiday season draws near, Alan offers thoughtful guidance on aligning charitable giving with personal values for maximum impact.
