Wasatch Community Foundation.

The Heartbeat of Heber Valley.

In the year 2000, a group of passionate and dedicated volunteers in Heber Valley decided to make a difference. They formed the Wasatch Community Foundation (WCF) with a simple yet profound idea: “From the community, for the community.” This concept was not just a slogan but a commitment to address local needs and support other non-profits in their fundraising efforts.

WCF has grown into a thriving 501c3 organization, becoming one of the largest volunteer groups in Heber Valley. The foundation’s impact is a testament to the power of community spirit and generosity. Every year, local projects that have been carefully vetted and approved by the WCF Board of Directors are supported either by funding or with complementary programs and volunteer efforts to address the need. This collaborative effort has resulted in the improved lives of families in Wasatch County, where hundreds of thousands of dollars in funding, and thousands of volunteer hours have been dedicated to well-deserving causes right here in the
Heber Valley.

Building an Extraordinary Community

WCF’s vision is to build an extraordinary community by enabling people of all ages to live happy and healthy lives. Their mission is to advance the well-being of Wasatch County residents by uniting community resources and programs through five key pillars: Human Services, Health, Education, Recreation, and Arts. These pillars represent the foundation’s commitment to creating a holistic and thriving community.

Annual Fundraising Event: A Night to Remember

One of the yearly highlights for WCF and the Heber Valley community will be the Annual Fundraising Event. This year’s event promises to be an unforgettable evening, held on October 10, 2024, at the beautiful Homestead Resort in Midway. The event kicks off at 6 pm with dinner, a presentation, and fundraising auction, highlighting specific causes in the community.

This event is more than just a fundraiser; it’s a celebration of the community’s generosity and the impact of their contributions. Attendees will have the opportunity to donate directly to individual pillars of service. The funds raised will benefit various causes, such as youth sports programs, children’s health and dental clinics, the annual Thanksgiving Community Dinner, mental health services, the lifelong learning project, and the STEP UP education program.

The Wasatch Community Foundation is a shining example of what can be achieved when a community comes together with a shared purpose. Their work embodies the spirit of giving and the belief that, together, we can build a brighter future for all. Join WCF in their mission to make Heber Valley an extraordinary place to live, work, and play. Your support
