Your Giving, Your Community You don’t need to be wealthy to make your mark. Few of our donors have extraordinary means—but all have a desire to improve the world they call home. By creating a fund with the Foundation, you can better your world in your own way—now and in perpetuity. Or simply donate to a fund that appeals to you, such as one of our so-called “discretionary” funds, which the Foundation has created to meet pressing community needs. Find out more by contacting Donor Services at 508.755.0980 or email donorservices@greaterworcester.org. Create Your Own Named Fund Families and individuals find that the Foundation offers an efficient and effective way to better their community and fulfill both philanthropic and financial goals. With a gift of $10,000 or more, you can establish a named fund to create your personal legacy. We offer a variety of funds that are flexible to meet our donors’ different charitable interests. Your fund may be donor advised, designated or discretionary, or dedicated to your field of interest or a scholarship. Your intentions are honored in perpetuity. Your money enters a well-managed endowment that preserves capital during tough times and extends the value and reach of your giving. And because the Foundation is a 501(c)(3) public charity, you receive the maximum tax benefits allowed by law. Greater Worcester Community Foundation • 2012 ANNUAL REPORT Add To An Existing Fund Support a cause, honor a loved one, or express your values by giving to any of our existing funds. Gifts of any amount are accepted at any time. Make A Planned Gift You can make a gift to the community that provides income and tax benefits now, and supports your philanthropic goals after your lifetime. Name the Foundation in your will or as the beneficiary of retirement assets, transfer a life insurance policy, or contribute real estate as a future gift while using the property throughout your lifetime. Other options include setting up a gift annuity or charitable remainder trust. Your financial advisor can help you select the form of giving that best suits your goals. Greater Worcester Community Foundation Our Mission To enhance our community, now and in the future, through philanthropic leadership.
