Our 20th Anniversary

Two decades of strengthening communities and inspiring giving

Throughout 2023, let's celebrate our past, present and future impact.

When we opened our doors in February 2003, our goal was simple: Help people give back to the Dubuque region.

Today, we continue to help people invest in our community while also doing so much more. Learn about the many ways we are strengthening Dubuque through generosity and partnerships — for today, tomorrow, and forever.

“A lot of hard work from our founding board members plus Nancy and her team brought the Foundation from an idea and a post office box to what it is today. That's what I'm proud of – how the initial work has been carried much further than I ever dreamed.”
John O'Connor Community Foundation founding board member
