Custom Giving Solutions
Foundations
A foundation within Community Foundation Tampa Bay can look just like a private foundation, offering the same benefits and prestige but with fewer costs and administrative burdens for you, your family, or your beneficiaries. You can even brand and promote your foundation in the same way as a private foundation. Our Philanthropy Team provides foundations at Community Foundation Tampa Bay with assistance in facilitating family meetings, research on nonprofits, and customized grant reports. With a starting contribution of $100,000, you can establish your foundation—then you, your family, or your business can focus on the joys of giving while we take care of the behind-the-scenes details.

Benefits and Services of a Corporate Advised Fund
Personalized Services
Our Philanthropy Team serves as your liaison to the nonprofit community. We support your company with annual philanthropy planning meetings, goal setting, and information on local needs and opportunities to guide your giving strategy.
Ease
You contribute to your fund when and how you choose while claiming the maximum tax benefits allowed by law at the time of contribution. Your fund allows you to carry out your philanthropy with greater flexibility and less time commitment.
Hassle-Free Administration and Grantmaking
Our online grantmaking portal makes giving quick and efficient. We handle all administrative tasks, including IRS reporting, accounting, record-keeping, and compliance. After verifying each nonprofit’s IRS status, we process and send your grants with a customized letter.
Control Over Your Fund
You can choose how our professional managers invest your philanthropic assets on your behalf—for the short, intermediate, or long term. You may also choose for your own investment advisor to manage the assets through our Individually Managed Charitable Accounts program.
Flexible Asset Investment
You can open or add to your Corporate Advised Fund with cash, appreciated stocks, retirement account assets, real estate, cryptocurrency, life insurance, business interests, and other complex assets.
Cost-Effectiveness
Our administrative fees are significantly lower than those associated with a private foundation. All fees to the Community Foundation are reinvested in our philanthropic work in the greater Tampa Bay community.
