Located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, the Martinsville City, Henry and Patrick County region has everything from breathtaking views of Nature and watersheds to the thrill of NASCAR racing. Long a historical and leading center of both the textile and furniture industry, the communities here are filled with generous people who care deeply about the region, either because of long and deep family roots or having fallen in love with their new hometown after locating here.
Since 2005, The Community Foundation’s office in Martinsville has had the privilege of working closely with individuals, families, and corporations to match donor intent with community needs and opportunities, both to create deeper local impact and to build significant long-term resources through named charitable endowments.
