Find a Community Foundation

Community foundations manage a number of different types of funds to help individuals and families meet their charitable goals. They can provide solutions to complex charitable plans, since they often have the resources to manage such gifts, more than some small- or medium-sized nonprofits. In addition, community foundations can help individuals and families give to multiple organizations, specific causes and/or support multi-generational giving and anonymous giving.

Here are several of the options we offer:

  • Support Your Community in Perpetuity – An Unrestricted Gift to the community foundation allows the foundation’s trustees to use the funds where they will have the greatest impact;
  • Open a Donor Advised Fund – A multigenerational giving vehicle that allows heirs to continue a philanthropic legacy;
  • Open a Designated Fund – Often endowed, this type of fund supports one or more nonprofits, which allows a donor to continue their regular support of these organizations into the future;
  • Establish an Area of Interest Fund to support broad causes or regions as their needs evolve; and/or
  • Establish a Scholarship Fund – Either at a specific institution or according to the donor’s key criteria.

To employ any of these options, or have a more detailed discussion about them, please contact:
