ears, the Chosen Valley Community Foundation (CVCF) has provided yearly grant money into our community with the mission to inspire, sustain and enhance the quality of life for the Chatfield community’s residents, from the youngest to the oldest.

In our most recent fall grant awards, Chatfield Public Library received $2000 in funds made possible by our generous donors. This grant helped them purchase Yoto Players (mobile technology learning devices) that are now in circulation.
