Donor Advised Grants
The Donor Advised Grant program allows philanthropically-minded individuals, families, or organizations to establish donor-advised funds, providing a means for giving to the community issues and causes you care about most. A donor-advised fund is tax-deductible in the year in which it was made, and additional contributions can be made at a later date. Donor-advised funds are maintained in a separate account and the Foundation takes care of all investing, bookkeeping, and reporting for you. The donor can recommend disbursements at any time to a qualified charity of their choice. Please contact us if you are interested in establishing a Donor Advised Grant program for the charity of your choice.
