Overview

Donor Advised Grants

Funder: The Community Foundation of Will County

Geographic Scope: Will County, Illinois

About the Program:
In addition to the competitive Community Partner Grants program, The Community Foundation of Will County awards grants from donor advised funds throughout the year. Donors who have established funds with the Foundation can direct grants to nonprofit organizations of their choice.

Funding Impact:
Donor advised funds have significantly increased the Foundation's overall grant distribution. For example, in the 2015 grant cycle, donors with advised funds contributed $29,930 in additional grants, increasing the total impact by over 50% beyond the Foundation's competitive grants.

How It Works:
Donors establish funds with the Foundation and then advise the Foundation on grants to be made from their fund to nonprofit organizations working in priority areas or their chosen focus areas.
