strengthen your mission

These funds build enduring assets to support your nonprofit organization. You focus on carrying out your mission; we provide professional investment management and administrative services to strengthen it.

Benefits of Establishing a Nonprofit Fund

  • Professional Oversight and Investment Management: Your assets held with the Community Foundation are managed by world-class investment managers and strategies. All investments are overseen by our experienced investment committee, staff, and investment consulting firm.
  • Fund Administration: We handle the administrative aspects of your fund including quarterly statements, an annual payout with the option to re-invest, and access to all information related to the management of your fund.
  • Investment Purchasing Power: Funds are pooled with other Foundation assets to lower investment expenses. Each fund accrues its own share of the earnings and is accounted for separately by the Foundation.
  • Planned Giving: The Foundation's development staff can provide expertise, administer gifts, and assist potential donors and their advisors on technical gift planning issues.
  • Acceptance of Diverse Assets: CFNEIA can receive unique gifts (assets like privately held stock, mutual fund shares, and real estate) that may be highly tax advantageous to donors but difficult for nonprofits to own or process. These can then be added to your fund.
  • Fund Promotion: Your fund will be listed on our Nonprofit Fund List located directly on our giving page and our team will create a promotional flyer for you to utilize. This allows you to direct donors to give directly to your fund and exposes your fund to the Community Foundation audiences.
Growing Your Fund

Starting an endowment fund is just the first step. Growing your fund provides your organization with increased long-term stability and funding to go above and beyond what your annual giving can support. Part of growing your fund is sharing it with your stakeholders.
