The BCF offers various types of funds. The Foundation provides a vehicle for donors to meet their charitable needs.
Donors have the freedom to structure funds to accomplish their specific charitable goals.
Donors creating an Unrestricted Fund rely on the expertise of the Foundation Board to identify and evaluate the most effective uses of the fund. This type of fund allows donors to pick a particular field of interest, such as the arts, museums, local youth groups, environmental issues, schools and education, senior citizen needs, parks, American Red Cross, American Cancer Society, etc. The BCF will distribute the funds within one or more field of interests as directed by the donor. The BCF maintains your gift in a sub-account named for you, your family or company. This allows you to advise how you want the funds distributed to meet your specific objectives, secure enhanced tax benefits and avoid the administrative burden of a private foundation.
