- To seek and develop opportunities that give the DSCF the means to provide financial assistance, guidance and development support to those nonprofit and charitable organizations that serve the community. 

- To serve as a source and resource for the community's charitable and nonprofit organizations who are  an integral part of the community's good will and well-being.

The Foundation works closely with the Austin Community Foundation to ensure the work of the Foundation operates and complies with the laws governing nonprofit organizations.

The Austin Community Foundation manages over $100 million in assets in more than 900 funds.

The Dripping Springs Community Foundation's funds are managed through this capable and

experienced organization which lends both legal and fiscal support to the Foundation.

Thanks to the generous support of many, the Foundation is now able to make significant grants to

deserving groups. We rely entirely on the generosity of those individuals, families and members

of the business community who wish to contribute. No gift is too small or too large and all are

vital to the Foundation's work.
