DONOR SERVICES

About 70% of all Americans give to charity during their lifetimes. Giving through the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country is both simple and efficient. Donors may create component funds at a community foundation through gifts of cash, appreciated assets, and/or real estate. Donors may also make deferred gifts with charitable trusts, life insurance, IRA's, or by designating the Community Foundation as a recipient of a bequest in their will.

The Community Foundation is currently comprised of more than 60 component funds. All component funds are grouped together or pooled for greater economies of scale and investment opportunities

Six types of funds are currently used by the Community Foundation.

1. Unrestricted Fund

2. Donor Advised Fund

3. Field of Interest Fund

4. Designated Fund

5. Agency Endowment Fund

6. Scholarship Fund

The following are component funds of the Community Foundation. Some funds honor an individual or the memory of a loved one, other funds are created by living donors and bear their names. Several nonprofit organizations have established endowment funds while others are the recipients of designated funds. Component funds of the Community Foundation can accomplish virtually any kind of charitable activity.
