Connecting people who care with causes that matter… SINCE 1990.

Since 1990, the Mt. Pleasant Area Community Foundation has helped thousands of individuals, families and businesses put their resources to work to help others.  We know the needs of our community and the most effective programs and organizations that serve those needs.  We know the latest options for flexible and tax-effective giving.  We use our knowledge to connect people in ways that make life better for Isabella County residents today and tomorrow. 

Our Mission... is to enhance the quality of life for all citizens of Isabella County, now and for generations to come, by holding and attracting permanent endowed funds from a wide range of donors, addressing needs through grant making and providing leadership on key community issues.
