Field of Interest Fund Details
Field of Interest funds are established by a group of donors who wish to contribute to a cause or an area of concern but do not want to designate a particular organization. The Community Foundation uses the guidelines established by the donor, as well as the Community Foundation’s extensive knowledge of the community to select grant recipients using a competitive application process.

Basic Services
  • Grant application process for competitive grant making.
  • Grant evaluation: final reports, site visits, discovery visits, meetings and consultations with grantees.
  • Grantee selection. We setup and develop procedures for granting committee structures.
  • We pool your gift together with others so the impact is greater. See our Giving Opportunities webpage where donors can make easy and safe online donations directly to funds.
  • Professional investment management.
  • History of giving and granting is maintained, as well as recordkeeping and archiving of electronic and/or paper format.
  • The Community Foundation features and markets the fund for asset building and grant making.
  • Recording and acknowledging donor gifts.
  • Memorials/Honorariums fund raising; acknowledgements are sent to both the donor and honoree.

Our Investment Practices
All funds are pooled with the charitable resources of over 500 other families, businesses, and non-profit organizations. Pooling funds provides greater potential for better returns at a lower cost. These assets, currently valued at more than $65.0 million, are spread over a broad group of investment classes to ensure a balanced portfolio.  
 
Basic Fee Services
The administrative or management fee for all services is currently 1.25% annually with no minimum balance based on the following fund balances:  
  • First $2,500,000:  1.25%
  • Next $1,500,000:  1.05%
  • Next $1,000,000:  0.95%
  • Remaining balance:  0.85%
