You can target your fund and choose the level of involvement you wish to have. Donor advised funds put you in the driving seat, or you can choose to leave the choice of who to support to us. Other funds give you the opportunity to target specific geographic areas or theme your grants by the following types:
give you the opportunity to select charitable groups to receive grants from your fund. You have an active involvement in deciding who to support. Devon Community Foundation provides advice and administrative support for your fund. Such funds can have specific criteria for the distribution of grants, which we will help you to establish.
enable you to select a broad area of need to support, such as young people or the homeless and let Devon Community Foundation find the best projects to support.
allow you to nominate a particular area within Devon to benefit, for example we hold a Rural Fund which supports projects in the most rural communities in the seven rural Districts in the County.
support specific charitable organisations you identify. If the named charity is no longer active or providing a designated service, another organisation with a similar purpose is selected to receive a grant.
Your fund can cover any or all of the above.
