It is also responsible for overseeing the financial well-being of the Foundation by assisting the treasurer with collection of dues, preparation of tax documents and development of future financial policies. Education is one of the primary components of the Foundation's charter. This committee is currently looking for new educational programs to participate in. Grants - A grant is an outright gift from the Foundation to provide financial assistance to community organizations for their charitable and educational projects. Grant applications are accepted twice a year - from January 1 to February 28 and June 1 to July 31.
Applications consist of completed CPGs detailing the entire project and how it is being funded.
Pass Through - The Foundation, unlike Jaycee chapters, is eligible for an exemption from sales tax for appropriate projects. Chapters can apply for a Pass Through and, if approved, can benefit from a sales tax savings as well as the ability to promote donations which would be tax deductible to the full extent of the law. Projects that are charitable or educational may be eligible as a Pass Through project. The Endowment Fund - Established in 1986, this fund exists for the purpose of having a continuous source of funding for the valuable programs of the Jaycee movement. All contributions to the Endowment are placed in a segregated account with only income from the assets being used to help ensure the continuation of the Jaycee Movement.
