Benefits for Donors

Convenient Local Services

Central Carolina Community Foundation is structured to make powerful charitable giving easy, flexible and effective for our donors and their financial advisors.  Donors may choose from a variety of charitable giving approaches, selecting the methods that best suit their financial plan. Once a fund is established, donors will have access to information about their funds by contacting the Foundation. Our staff works hard to connect donors with the issues they care about most.

Experienced Staff

Central Carolina Community Foundation has over two decades of experience in crafting charitable giving techniques based on the individual needs of our donors. We can provide you with information to help you make well-informed decisions that meet your financial and charitable goals.  More than 300 individuals, corporations, nonprofit agencies and organizations have selected the Community Foundation because of our knowledge of local needs and our extensive experience in local problem solving.

Gifts in Perpetuity

The Community Foundation is governed by a dedicated volunteer Board of Trustees. These civic leaders represent a diverse cross-section of the community. Donors can be confident that their charitable gifts will be managed properly and will continue to fulfill the purpose for which they were originally created, whether focusing on the environment, the arts, or young people, generation after generation. Using certain planned giving instruments, donors may even be able to create their own charitable legacy, while often providing needed income for themselves or another beneficiary.

Economies of Scale

If each individual fund operated independently and had to create our services independently, the price tag would be exorbitant.  High administrative funds often reduce the dollars available for giving.  At the Community Foundation, our funds share the costs of our outstanding staff and excellent investment advisors. Thus, the Community Foundation is able to serve clients who want to be philanthropists, no matter what their wealth.
