| The Community
Foundation of West Alabama strives to promote and facilitate
charitable giving in the eight counties of West Alabama. As a
corporate leader, you may be interested in helping give to our
community without incurring additional administrative burdens. By
giving through the Community Foundation, the corporate treasurer
writes only one check or makes only one gift of stock instead of
many to multiple charities. One gift takes care of the corporate
tax deduction and establishes or increases a Fund from which grants
may be made for years to come. |
 |
| With an Advised Fund,
your corporation can set aside money when it is most prudent for tax
planning purposes and yet grants can be spread out over time. The
Foundation owns and invests the funds with other funds for economies
of scale. However, grants are based on your written
recommendations. |
| The Community Foundation of
West Alabama aims to help connect civic leaders and givers in the
corporate arena with the resources and needs of our community. Our
additional goal is to help corporations, families and individuals
increase the scope and effectiveness of giving. The Foundation is
able to take over administrative duties. |
