The Community Foundation

Ways of Giving

 

Since its inception, the Community Foundation has been helping donors of all types focus their charitable interests in the community where they live and work.  It is a sound investment that will benefit you, your family, and our community both today and far into the future.  And, depending on the planned giving option that is utilized, it is possible to also realize significant tax savings and additional income.

The Community Foundation has established a Gift Acceptance Committee which is prepared to work with the donor's professional advisors to ensure that a proposed gift is in the best interest of both the donor and the organizations.

 

 

Types of Funds

General or Unrestricted Foundation Funds:  Donor gifts irrevocably held by the Foundation, the earnings of which are made available annually to community agencies in the form of grants to qualified nonprofits.  Over $285,000 has been granted to area agencies since 1995 for new and innovative programs, emergencies, and capital initiatives.

  • Arthur and Phyllis Heidrich Fund

  • Mae K. Ottenstein Memorial Fund

  • Titleholder's Championship for Outstanding Community Service

  • Charles H. Leithauser Fund

  • Alexander L. Naylor Fund

Donor-Restricted Funds:  Donor gifts whose principal is irrevocably held by the Foundation, with any subsequent earnings (net of investment manager fees) distributed in perpetuity in accordance with instructions of the donor of those funds and in keeping with general guidelines regarding restricted gifts.  Named or Family-named funds may be established at the request of the donor with a minimum gift of $100,000.

  • Anna & Charles Salisbury Scholarship Fund

  • Floyd A. Scherer Fund

  • Mary Jean Lefebvre Memorial Fund

  • Margaret Julia Kent Fund

  • Francis Gadbois Fund for Boys & Girls Club

Donor-Advised Funds:  Gifts whereby the principal is irrevocably held by the Foundation, but whose donor (or other named individuals) during his/her lifetime retains the privilege of making recommendations on the distributions of subsequent net income.  Upon death of the donor (or other named individuals), principal and income are irrevocably placed in the Foundation's General Fund.

 

 

Partnership Funds:  As a service of the foundation, Partnership Funds help qualified non-profit organizations maximize investment yields on their endowment and reserve funds.  The organization retains full ownership of the principal and any subsequent earnings, and accepts investment risks.  Partnership funds are sub-accounts of the General Fund, and, as such, the Foundation retains full responsibility for the investment and monitoring of Partnership funds.

  • Center for the Visually Impaired (CVI) Fund

  • Children's Advocacy Center Fund

  • United Cerebral Palsy/Work Oriented Rehabilitation Center  Fund
