open a nonprofit fund
keep it local
With an ECCF Nonprofit Fund, a nonprofit organization’s reserve and endowment assets are managed by expert investment professionals, backed by the support of ECCF’s Nonprofit Services team. Which means that your organization’s reserves can become lasting, sustainable support for your mission.
Nonprofit Funds offer easy management, robust reporting and a host of additional benefits.
THE VALUE OF COMMUNITY FOUNDATIONS
A community foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the lives of the people who live in the region they serve. We launch community leadership initiatives, support donors on their philanthropic journeys and help nonprofit organizations increase their capacity through grantmaking, coalition building and education. Many, like ECCF, offer a range of charitable investment vehicles to power this work, including donor-advised, scholarships, field-of-interest, and nonprofit funds.
While some of these charitable investment vehicles are offered by big banks and investment firms, it’s only at a community foundation like ECCF that the industry-standard management fees are reinvested in your local community. Combined with our knowledge of the real challenges and opportunities facing our region, community foundations have an outsized impact on the people and places they serve.
