How does it work?
The Paradise Community Foundation

Individuals, families, and organizations come to The Paradise Community Foundation because of our ability to help them support worthwhile causes, to participate in the betterment of our community, and to find greater satisfaction in charitable giving.  The Paradise Community Foundation is your personal approach to express your individual charitable giving needs.  You can start your own Fund to achieve personal goals a fund that:

  • Is directed by you.
  • Addresses local needs
  • That does things that you think are important.

No dream is too small or too large.  We usually associate philanthropic Funds with millions of dollars of assets.  However, every size Fund can find a place with the Paradise Community Foundation.  Funds grow in size ………the important thing is to get started.

The community foundation idea is simple. We provide a cost-effective way to meet your charitable goals, whether you want to help a single cause or many causes. We offer you a full menu of planned giving options to tailor your gift. We can also work with your attorney or financial advisor to ensure your giving plans are incorporated into your other estate planning strategies.

You can create a fund in honor of someone you love or to celebrate a special event. You can direct your gift broadly to many causes or narrowly to a specific cause or wherever the needs are greatest. Your gift can change lives – today and in the future.

We use professionals to invest and manage our assets. Our investment policy requires all financial advisors meet fiduciary standards. Our board of local citizens knows the community and understands your desire to make a difference with your hard-earned money.

Our staff can help you create a gift that achieves your charitable goals.

We offer you simplicity and flexibility in charitable giving without
the legal paperwork, time and expenses associated with running
your own private foundation. We can help you set up a fund that will maximize both your tax advantages and your impact in the community – now and forever.
