For Professional Advisors

Community Foundation aspires to be your one stop location for answers to multiple charitable interests your clients may have and we hope we can help focus those ideas.

Community Foundation speaks with donors often and encourages them to meet with their lawyer and other financial advisors to develop plans that fit their financial needs. Bequests that include charitable intentions are fairly common but we also accept IRA distributions, C-Corp Shares, life insurance, named beneficiary of Charitable Remainder Trusts or Charitable Lead Trusts, real estate and more.

Thank you to the following advisors for being valuable partners in giving.

quote George Ferrari, CEO, Community Foundation

Community philanthropy is first and foremost about people not transactions... We offer a different vision of philanthropy embedded in the context of collaborative achievement, uplifting capacity, and fierce self-determination. We think of philanthropy as an expression of hope.
