By Greensboro. For Greensboro.
Making a Difference in the Piedmont Triad.
Education. Healthcare. Entrepreneurship.
Under the umbrella of the Community Foundation of Greater Greensboro, our goal is to create lasting impact in the Piedmont Triad by supporting Non-Profits in a few target areas of focus.
Started by Stanley and Dorothy Frank in 1997, it is a legacy of their generosity and the hard work of hundreds of women and men over the past 60 years. This includes the employees of Carolina By-Products, which Stanley Frank owned and operated for 36 years.
Our Foundation does not accept unsolicited grant applications.
Stanley and Dorothy are major strengths in this community and their real strength lies in their character. What those two have done for and meant to this community is remarkable. They are both the salt of the earth.
