Donor Advised Funds enable donors to establish either an endowment or non-permanent gift fund to grant to multiple nonprofit organizations of the donors' recommendation. The donor has the benefit of working with our Program Department to meet their philanthropic goals.

Agency Endowment

These funds benefit nonprofit organizations as identified by the donor at the time the fund is established.

Field of Interest Fund

These funds support a general area of interest to the donor including arts, education, health and human services. The Foundation makes granting decisions for these funds during our regular funding cycle.

Opportunity Funds

These funds award grants to organizations and programs that respond to the region's most pressing issues and opportunities.  Grants from opportunity funds are awarded after the grants committee, comprised of knowledgeable members of the Foundation's Board and community volunteers, review grant applications and make recommendations to the Board.
