# Endowment Funds Support Your Community

The Community Foundation for Crawford County provides for many types of endowment funds for community organizations:  Agency Endowments, School Endowments, Designated Endowments, and Field of Interest Funds.

The CF4CC Endowment is an ***Undesignated*** Fund. This means that donations to the CF4CC are used to award competitive grants for educational and community service non-profit organizations within Crawford County. 

An ***Agency Endowment*** is a type of designated fund established by a charity at a community foundation for the charity's own benefit or the benefit of a related entity.  For example, an art museum transfers funds to a community foundation to establish a fund that will provide annual distributions to the art museum for its own use.  Learn more about the **[Crawford County Ohio Agency Endowments](https://www.cfcrawford.org/agency-endowments/) **with the Community Foundation for Crawford County.

### Fund Guidelines

- [Donors](http://www.bucyrusrotaryclub.com/bacf/login/donors) will meet with CF4CC representatives to sign a contract of understanding that specifies the [fund type](http://www.bucyrusrotaryclub.com/bacf/login/fundtype) being established, fund name, and initial contribution amount.
- Minimum contributions are dependant on the type of fund being started. The CF4CC is flexible however and will gladly work with a donor, family, or organization to establish and manage the fund until it reaches the minimum requirements.
- An annual administrative fee is charged for the management of the fund. The fee structure will vary from 1.0% to 1.5%, depending on size and [type of the fund](http://www.bucyrusrotaryclub.com/bacf/login/fundtype) being established.
- The Board of Trustees of the CF4CC has the responsibility of overseeing the investments of the fund. It is the goal of the Board to achieve a balance of fixed income with equities to provide a steady source of income that will keep pace with inflation over the years.
- The organization is informed upon receipt of the annual check of precisely which fund has contributed. The CF4CC routinely publicizes all grant-making awards, including the name of the Funds distributing money. Named funds are also mentioned regularly in our annual newsletters, financial reports, and other promotional materials.
