Volunteers and Local “Heroes” are Recognized

Covid restrictions forced the cancellation of our annual “Heart of Larkspur” event honoring community volunteers, co-hosted with the City of Larkspur. Instead, community volunteers, local firemen, policemen and folks at the Larkspur Post Office were thanked with $5 gift certificates for a coffee or a scone.

Helping preserve the small-town character of Larkspur and enhance the overall quality of life in the community

Launched in 2013 to support small projects and activities that will add to the quality of life of our greater community, the Larkspur Community Foundation (LCF) exists to help fulfill our community’s wish list. We raise money from local donors for projects and activities that would otherwise go unfunded, provide a tax deductible alternative for supporting worthy projects and programs the community desires, and build community by connecting volunteers with opportunities to help meet community needs.  As a grant making organization, the Foundation invites donors to support community efforts and works in collaboration with civic organizations, nonprofits, local government and schools in Larkspur and neighboring areas.

WHO WE ARE

Local leaders who want to preserve Larkspur’s historic small town character and enhance the community’s quality of life.
