| 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. |
