Leaving a Legacy

As the Donor, you decide when, how much and the purpose of your gift. Gifts to the Warren County Community Foundation are invested and managed as permanent endowments to produce income. The income earned is then used to help meet the community's charitable needs- from social work and education to economic development. There are a variety of ways these funds can be used to fulfill a donor's charitable goals. Donors have the flexibility of donating to existing funds or creating individual funds.

Unrestricted Funds

If you wish to provide resources for your community to meet future needs, assist an existing program, or even start a new program; the unrestricted fund will be your choice. Your gift will be granted by a community board for purposes which are meaningful and timely.

Field of Interest Funds

Perhaps you have a particular interest in a specific are of need.  It might be your hometown, or a special interest such as youth, religion, healthcare, or education. The Foundation Board will award grants from your fund within the are you have designated in your particular fund agreement.

Advised Funds

Do you want more "say" in the yearly grant distributions? You, as the donor, will advise the Foundation Board on grantees by serving on the selection committee. You may also specify the selection committee.

Designated Funds

Are you devoted to one or more particular charitable organizations? You may wish to establish a designated fund, thereby assuring that a favorite charity will receive annually from your endowed fund. This could be your favorite animal shelter or Alma Mater.

Agency Endowment Funds

If you have been a supporter of a particular agency within your community or nationally, you may want to establish an agency endowment fund. The agency itself may establish the fund to ensure an uninterrupted and dependable source of funding to carry out the work on a perpetual basis.

Scholarship Funds

A customized scholarship fund to assist students will provide assistance for tuition and fees. A Foundation scholarship is customized to the donors wishes. Eligibility for applicants, application procedures, and the amount of scholarship support are all designated to reflect the wishes of the donor

Special Project Funds

Immediacy is an important element in the Special Projects Funds. Perhaps a new project emerges, a need arises, or a non-profit group requests fundraising assistance from the Foundation. Rather than establish a permanent endowment, resources are given to support these special short-term goals.

Giving is easy through the Warren County Community Foundation. Gifts can be flexible and unique as the individual donors. Cash is the most common gift, but real estate, personal property, appreciated securities, and bequests among others are all acceptable forms of donations that qualify for a charitable deducation in the the year the gift was made. Anyone can become a philanthropist through the Warren County Community Foundation by turning dreams into reality.
