The Fund Advisor (one or more persons or an advisory
committee) recommends grants from an advised fund to charitable organizations
or projects.
Individuals, families, and businesses may be interested
in a Advised Fund when they:
- Wish to create a named fund to honor or memorialize an individual, family,
or business;
- Considered creating a family or business “foundation,” but
want to avoid the costs, regulations, minimum distribution rules, excise
taxes, and administrative costs of private foundations;
- Want to be able to vary the charities they support as years go by;
- Want to involve succeeding generations of the family or business;
- Want
to make large charitable gifts before the end of the tax year, but
need time to explore or clarify their philanthropic dreams or the
best ways to accomplish them with no requirements as to the amount
or timing of distributions from the fund;
- Want to make contributions to a charitable holding account and later
transfer those contributions to other funds held by the Foundation or
directly to charities;
- Want to consider requests for funding made to the Community Foundation
in their particular areas of interest and to benefit from the counsel
of Foundation staff regarding current charitable needs and programs.
