Acorn Society

A gift that grows with time.

Acorn Funds are one of the best ways to invest in the future of our community. Through regular contributions, these endowments grow in much the same way that retirement funds do. For many, this is a much more realistic way to reach the $10,000 minimum required to establish an endowment fund. They’re also a tax-deductible way to ensure your charitable gifts last forever.

An Acorn Fund must begin with an initial donation of $1,000. The fund can be named for a family member, an organization, or any number of causes. Donors then make regular, tax-deductible contributions for any amount at any time. Click here for further information regarding our Acorn Funds.

By establishing an Acorn Fund within The Community Foundation, you create a vehicle for perpetual giving to organizations important to you. Your wishes will be carried out during your lifetime and beyond. Over time your Acorn Fund will make a positive difference for many people and organizations in our community.
