Permanent Endowment Funds - Community/Unrestricted Endowment

By making a community/unrestricted gift, you give the Foundation latitude in addressing the most pressing needs in the county today as well as the emerging needs of the next generation. Community/Unrestricted funds are those from which grants are normally made in response to approved applications from community organizations and institutions. Such funds are also used to fund grants for proactive purposes approved by the Board of Directors.

Families, individuals, and businesses may be particularly interested in a Community/Unrestricted Endowment when they:

• Wish to create a perpetual named fund to honor or memorialize a family, individual, or business;
  
• Wish to create a perpetual named fund to which others may contribute;
  
• Wish to provide funds which allow the board and staff of the Community Foundation to respond to community needs in innovative ways.
