Building a Legacy of Philanthropy in the McMinnville Area Since 2013.

About the McMinnville Area Community Foundation

Founded on June 10, 2013 by Dave Haugeberg and several local families, the McMinnville Area Community Foundation was created to foster a strong philanthropic presence in the community. The first endowed funds were launched that year—starting with the Haugeberg Family Fund and followed by the Chambers, Huwaldt, and Washington Family Funds. Since then, we’ve grown to house 46 permanently endowed funds and serve a wide range of local needs.

Our mission is to facilitate meaningful giving by supporting family and agency funds, partnering with statewide foundations, and helping match resources with community priorities. Whether through facilitating grants, bringing in outside funding, or simply being a collaborative partner, MACF works quietly and effectively behind the scenes to make impactful giving possible.
