The Greater Grand Island Community Foundation simplifies the donation process, thanks to a dedicated staff, assisting you in creating a clear gift agreement to establish your fund and fulfill your charitable goals. 

A Community Foundation provides efficiency by handling tasks like structuring the foundation, policy creation, asset investment, and tax filings for donors, offering better tax advantages compared to private foundations. 

You have the flexibility to define your fund's charitable purpose according to your preferences, allowing distributions to a diverse range of charitable organizations. 

Donors often name their funds after themselves, the person or group they want to honor, or select a generic name. Grant recipients are informed about the fund's name and donor advisor unless anonymity is requested. 

Many donors involve their children in philanthropy by making them co-advisors or successors to continue the charitable work.
