The Grand Island Community Foundation currently manages over 90 different grant funds. Some of these funds allow donors to make grant recommendations to the Foundation while others have predetermined recipients that were specified by the funds' donors. In the remainder of cases, the donors have left the selection of grant recipients to the discretion of the Foundation and it is these discretionary funds, which make up our Foundation's grant making programs. The discretionary nature of these funds enables the Foundation to respond to emerging and changing community needs.
