The Meramec Regional Community Foundation works to improve the quality of life for individuals in the Crawford, Dent, Gasconade, Maries, Phelps, Pulaski, Osage, and Washington counties area through thoughtful grant making and community leadership.
The Meramec Regional Community Foundation is governed by a Board of Directors, chosen for their knowledge of the area. Grant decisions are made by the grant committee.

The flexibility this requires is made possible by charitable donors who established unrestricted or field-of-interest funds and place the decision-making in the hands of the community leaders serving on the Board of Directors as well as dollars raised by the Meramec Regional Community Foundation.
