Stay actively involved in your charitable giving, working with the Foundation to recommend grants annually to support local nonprofits and timely causes from the Donor Advised Fund you create.

Give to a Favorite Cause.

To address challenges that face our community, the Community Foundation has created multiple funds in the arts, education, and other broad areas. Your gift to one of these funds stays flexible enough to meet community needs in your interest area, even as they change over time. Choose from our existing Initiative Funds, or create a Field of Interest fund that reflects your priorities.

Give to a Scholarship Fund.

Support our community’s smart and deserving students by donating to one of the Community Foundation's many scholarship funds.

Give to a Favorite Charity (Organizational Endowment Funds).

Chances are, your favorite charity has a designated fund here at the Foundation already. By supporting these endowment funds, you help guarantee the future for the nonprofit organizations you care about the most.

Give to the Community’s Greatest Need.

Through Unrestricted Funds, you give the Foundation the flexibility to address the issues that matter most to St. Joseph County—today, tomorrow, or whenever need occurs.
