Welcome

The Autauga Area Community Foundation offers citizens in Autauga County the opportunity to build long-term support for their community. Individuals may establish new funds to support specific purposes or organizations, or they may contribute to existing funds.

These charitable funds provide grants to area nonprofits to improve the quality of life in Autauga County. AACF's Advisory Board of area citizens oversees an annual grantmaking program that determines the best investment of these community dollars.
