Our Mission

Caldwell County Foundation is a 501(c)(3) community foundation committed to advancing the health, well-being, and self-sufficiency of Caldwell County residents. Through collaborative partnerships, capacity building, and grantmaking, we support local nonprofits in addressing systemic barriers. By creating philanthropic solutions and uniting community strengths and resources, we drive initiatives that create lasting impact and help build a thriving community for all.

Our History

County Judge Hoppy Haden and County Grant Writer Dennis Engelke were very aware of the need for more resources to address the needs of Caldwell County residents. Then the COVID-19 pandemic severely impacted Caldwell County nonprofits, many of which struggled to access the funding desperately needed to serve their communities. In response, they formed a nonprofit. Board members were appointed, and The Caldwell County Community Services Foundation (CCCSF) was established in December 2019 by Caldwell County Commissioners Court Resolution 05-2020.

Dennis' retirement gathering served as a moving tribute to the impact of his efforts and the friends
