They are a type of fund that enables you to support specific nonprofit organizations, wherever they are located. It might be a group where you volunteer or one that has benefited you or a family member, or it might be a school you attended. And if, in the future, the organization no longer exists or no longer offers the programs you intended to support, the Foundation will identify another nonprofit that meets your charitable goals.
