About this organization
Mission
Northern New Jersey Community Foundation (NNJCF) improves community life through work in education, public health, and civic engagement. Our partners are building stronger communities by collaborating, answering the question, 'what can we accomplish together that we cannot alone?'
About
Civic engagement and the arts - by facilitating discussions among municipal officials, local leaders, and the public, NNJCF actively promotes collaborative projects that improve civic life in multiple areas economic, educational, cultural, public health, environmental, etc. Among the many benefits of such collaborative activity are the generation of social capital that invigorates and enriches community, and the development of partnerships that share best practices and create opportunities that cannot be taken advantage of individually. NNJCF encourages creative placemaking, the practice of integrating arts and culture into a neighborhood, town, or region to build community and livability and boost local economy. Current initiatives: Artsbergen, an emerging arts alliance that supports creative placemaking and has a mission to energize and unify artists and arts organizations and connect the Bergen County community to the arts.
