How Your Philanthropy Dollars Work Harder in a Community Foundation
We are building a permanent community resource, with endowment funds that grow and will benefit our community forever.
We help donors create an individual or family legacy and offer a simple way to fulfill multiple charitable intents, with low-cost administration, making us a good alternative to private or family foundations.
We offer personalized service, including donor and family involvement and education in selecting charities and connecting donors with strategic and high-impact funding opportunities.
We accept a wide variety of assets and offer maximum tax advantage.
All our fees stay in the community, where they
benefit local organizations meeting a broad range of local needs.
We are a center of expertise about community needs and non-profit groups.
We can preserve donor intent even when community issues and organizations change
