CFT for Business provides expertise and resources to help businesses develop and amplify a culture of good corporate citizenship. We partner with companies of all sizes and offer a wide range of philanthropic services to help start or grow a company's giving and community engagement program, guiding them through their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives and Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance (ESG) goals while aligning with the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs).
We believe in thriving teams that create thriving cultures to ensure a thriving future for all. Our Be In Good Company program recognizes companies that meet these pillars of excellence and make a difference in our community. CFT for Business’ Business Impact Network offers volunteer events, educational and professional development workshops, and affinity group networking.
CFT for Business provides additional service offerings for companies that have funds at CFT, including business-advised funds, executive funds, and employee giving circles. We look forward to offering enhanced networking opportunities for entrepreneurs, CEOs, women in business, and minority business owners through a series of ongoing affinity groups.
Funding will support programming offered to CFT for Business companies. Programming helps amplify or build on the work CFT for Business companies do to strengthen our communities.
CFT for Business’ mission is to build a vibrant community of engaged business leaders and thriving businesses by growing corporate giving in North Texas, financially and through volunteerism, enhancing employee engagement through valuable opportunities to network and support nonprofits who make our community a better place to live, work, and play and helping local companies achieve their charitable goals.
Communities Foundation of Texas is committed to advancing equity as one of our three strategic priorities to fulfill our mission and achieve our vision.
As your community foundation, our vision is of a community where every person has the opportunity to thrive. Our mission is to improve the lives of all people in our community, and we recognize that there are groups that have historically faced and continue to experience discrimination, injustice, and unequal access to basic resources, community spaces, and economic opportunities.
CFT believes that all community members:
- Should feel welcome, safe, and accepted;
- Should be treated with respect and dignity;
- Should have equitable access to opportunities to improve their lives and the lives of their families.
We are dedicated to both working internally with our staff and culture and learning and leading externally with partners across our community to create thriving communities for all.
