Working With Us
Donor Advised Funds:


Personal, Family or Corporate Foundations:
A personal, family or corporate foundation held at Community Foundation Tampa Bay looks like a private foundation. But there are fewer costs, time commitments and administrative hassles. You can focus on the joys of giving while we take care of all the details. A foundation within Community Foundation Tampa Bay receives more favorable tax treatment than a private foundation. Plus, you can brand and promote your foundation as you choose.
Legacy Gifts:
-
A bequest in your will or trust
-
A donation from your retirement plan
-
A life insurance policy
-
A charitable trust or gift annuity


Customized Giving Options:
We can help you customize your charitable gift in a number of ways, including both endowed and non-endowed gifts. An endowed gift usually is invested for the long-term. It generates income each year as the principle continues to grow. Endowments can be permanent or for a specific amount of time. A non-endowed gift can be invested and distributed for any period of time.
The gifts can go for:
-
The community good. Each year, the Community Foundation applies the funding to the Tampa Bay region’s most pressing challenges
-
A specific nonprofit or up to four named nonprofits
-
Projects or nonprofits that address a specific issue or cause that you care about, such as education, the environment or the arts
-
Scholarships for students at a specified school, with a designated major or career or from a geographic area
Endowments
We offer endowments—long-term funds invested to generate growth and income—to provide stability and a consistent source of income to support your mission. Endowments held at the Community Foundation Tampa Bay range from the minimum of $25,000 to more than $5 million. We manage, administer and invest the endowed funds, and you may receive a specified amount distributed to you annually to support your operations.
