Donate to a Component Fund

As a donor service organization, we assist our donors in creating component funds to achieve their charitable goals. Component funds operate under the Foundation's single Federal tax exemption and are managed in compliance with individual governing documents that clearly define the specific charitable goals and objectives of each fund.

Component funds may be created in any of the Foundation's broad interest areas of: Animal Welfare, Arts & Humanities, Community Improvement & Economic Development, Conservation & Environment, Education, Health & Fitness, Human Needs, and Religion & Faith.

Almost all component funds accept contributions to increase their impact. Learn about creating a new component fund.


Donate to a Strategic Initiative Fund

As a community leader and working with donors who understand the importance of proactive grantmaking, the Foundation manages several Strategic Initiative Funds, all of which seek additional contributions to increase their impact. Your support of a Strategic Initiative Fund will help to increase our capacity to address the community's current needs as well as to provide a source of support for future needs.
