Community foundation
From a garage to thirty years of impact.
In 1994, a teacher and a community organizer saw kids eating breakfast in the cold and went to work. Today, Northgate Foundation is embedded in five neighborhoods, staffed by people who grew up here and know what it takes to change lives.
Voices of trust
“My daughter has thrived in the after-school program. She's more confident, and she actually wants to go to homework help now.”
Maria T. · Parent, Cleveland
“We've been volunteering Saturday mornings at the pantry for three years. The team here is doing real work that sticks.”
“Northgate started with a dream and a garage. Three decades later, they're in every neighborhood we serve. That's earned trust.”
