Types of Funds
Picture

> Donor Advised Funds


> Designated Funds


> Scholarship Funds


> Agency Funds


> Unrestricted Funds

By establishing an Unrestricted Community Fund, you place your trust in us to use our knowledge and expertise to make community investments in programs that address our community’s most pressing needs, respond quickly to emergencies, and facilitate innovative responses to community challenges. Your fund will support the greatest opportunities in the community as they change over the years. (sample agreement)


> Field-of-Interest Funds 

Field Of Interest Funds are often established to support particular interest areas, specific program initiatives, causes or geographic areas. At the donor's request, use of the funds is restricted to a specific area of interest, but flexibility remains to meet changing situations. (sample agreement)

A personalized fund at the Peninsula Community Foundation gives you flexibility with your philanthropy. You can be as active as you wish and support the issues and organizations that matter most to you - locally, nationally, or internationally.
  • Gifts from your fund will then be made in your name or the name you choose for your fund.
  • You receive immediate tax benefits, but can give over time.
  • Your assets grow through investment, allowing you to give more.
  • You can endow your fund as a legacy in perpetuity.
A fund at the Peninsula Community Foundation allows you to give to specific organizations, make gifts over time, recognize you and your family, and grow your charitable dollars through investment—without the administrative burden and expense of a private foundation.

Create a Fund in 3 Easy Steps:

  1. Think about the charitable impact you wish to have – forever.
  2. Create a name for your legacy, such as the Jane Smith Endowment for Music Education. 
  3. Call the community foundation to set up your endowment.
