Organizational Endowments Funds - Managed for organizations with all distributions going to that organization. If your favorite organization has a fund already established at the Foundation, you may wish to add your gift to that fund. The Women's Endowment Fund is a Field of Interest Fund. Undirected Funds - Donors' funds whose income is available for grants and scholarships allocated by the Foundation's Board in accordance with its distributions policies and processes. All funds are named by the donors - for themselves or family members, for a company or a valued friend.
Some funds have names that convey a specific goal or purpose, or hold special meaning for the donor.
All funds are left open in perpetuity and can be added to at any time by anyone. It should be noted that the Foundation has a wide choice of designated, agency or field of interest funds which a donor could choose to add to if the specified cause or agency corresponds with what their own choices might be. In most cases, donors become aware of such funds either through various promotional materials, conversations with others, or through discussions with the Foundation's Executive Director as to what is happening in the community and in the Foundation, or how their personal concerns might be addressed in a tangible way through their contributions to the Foundation.
