Donor Advised Funds
An active approach to giving
For donors seeking an active role in grant-making, you can establish a donor advised fund or add to an existing fund. You can recommend grants to qualified nonprofit organizations anywhere in the United States. Donor advised funds operate much like private foundations but without the administrative burdens or paperwork.

Donor advisors may view your quarterly fund statements and make grant recommendations through our secure, password-protected Donor Advisor Portal.

| The Impact of Donor Advised Funds In 2008, 43% of all grants distributed from CCF were from donor advised funds to organizations working in the arts, education, environment, health and social services. Working in partnership with CCF leadership efforts, you can support an effective response to our community’s needs. |
