Types of Funds

Community Impact Funds

Community Impact Funds allow a donor to have the greatest possible impact by giving the Foundation flexibility in responding to ever-changing community needs.

Donor Advised Funds

Donor Advised Funds allow donors to participate in the selection of grant recipients by advising the Foundation during the selection process. This is a popular type of fund because it allows a donor and their family to actively participate in community philanthropy. Like a private foundation, without all the work.

Designated Funds

Provides long-term, annual support to one or more charitable organizations chosen by the donor at the time the fund was created. All available grant funds are then awarded to those selected organizations.

Field of Interest Funds

Allows a donor to select a particular area of emphasis, such as education, seniors, health, recreation, etc., and then available grant dollars from that fund will be dedicated to addressing the most pressing issues within that field of interest

Scholarship Funds

Scholarship Funds are to be used to further education of graduates of a particular high school, students in a specified field of study, or those enrolled at a chosen institution.
