Designated Endowment Funds allow donors to direct their gift to a specific charity, to forever benefit that organization. Donor Advised Funds allow a donor to remain actively involved in their charitable giving. From time to time, the donor or an advisor of their choice may suggest who is to benefit from a specific gift. Field of Interest Funds can be donor directed for a particular purpose, such as childcare or art education. SICF then selects the specific nonprofit organizations that best serve the fund's charitable intent. Organization Endowment Funds allow nonprofit organizations to create permanent endowment funds. SICF handles all of the administrative and investment responsibilities, freeing the organization to pursue its mission. Scholarship Funds allow a donor to help a group of students at a specific educational institution or in a particular curriculum pay for part or all of their education. The donor can be involved in establishing the selection criteria. Unrestricted Funds remain in perpetuity to address needs within Southeastern Illinois as they change over time. A community-based committee reviews and approves grants, then makes them in a specific fund's name. |
