Need a Reason?

Often people ask why people create funds at the Community Foundation.

Here are a few reasons we have heard during the past year:
 
“We had a good year and wanted to give back”

“We wanted to involve our family in giving, and do more than write a check”

“Ease of paperwork, compared to creating a private foundation”

“My attorney told me to come see you”

“I wanted anonymity”

“I had some appreciated real estate that I needed to do something with”

“We were updating our will”

“My friend has a fund at the Community Foundation, and referred me”
