Community Foundation of Lee County
An Affiliate of the Arkansas Community Foundation

The Community Foundation of Lee County makes grants to help improve the quality of life in our community.  Find out below information about our grantmaking process and grantmaking stories.

In 2006, the Community Foundation of Lee County worked in conjunction with Rotary International and the city of Marianna to build a playground in downtown Marianna.  Grants from the foundation have helped purchase equipment and a water fountatin for the playground.

The Community Foundation of Lee County has unrestricted grantmaking funds that allow us to assess the community’s needs and make grants to nonprofit organizations to support those needs. 

Children and parents gather at the playground
