All the funds are commingled, and you get your percentage of the increase.
Half of the grants in 2005 went to organizations in our area. We've also created what we call a 'Now and Forever Fund.' This is a permanent endowment to support area nonprofits.
If someone wants to leave something in their will, and they want to leave it to at-risk youth, for example, we can find an organization to support.
We had $21,000 in funds at the end of 2002, and we had $392,000 at the end of 2005. And the grants that we've made have grown from $500 in 2002 to $190,000 in 2005.
We involve people in philanthropy. It can be anybody. Anybody can donate to a fund, or they can create their own fund within the community foundation.
