If you have a specific non-profit organization where you'd like your donation to go, you may do that by filling in their name when asked by NetworkForGood.org to designate your donation for a specific fund or purpose. The Community Foundation will send your entire gift, less Network for Good's 4.75% processing fee, to that non-profit. Your tax receipt will reflect the entire gift amount. Otherwise, your gift will go into The Community Trust, The Community Foundation's unrestricted endowment, and the money will go out to the most important needs year after year.
Please give now! More information about giving though Network for Good is also available.
