Why Choose the GBCF?

We Know Our Community
When you choose to invest in the future of our 
communities, you want to work with someone who knows the territory. The broad cross-section of leaders who guide our work lends valuable insight that will help your 
charitable giving achieve maximum results.
 
We Help You Achieve Superior Tax Benefits
Since the IRS considers us a public charity, contributions are eligible for the highest available tax deductions. In most cases, these tax benefits outweigh using your assets to 
establish your own private foundation.
 
We Make Set-Up and Administration Easy
Establishing a fund can be done in just a few minutes. We take care of all the administrative and grant making 
activities, eliminating the need for you to set up a separate institution, formulate policies, file innumerable forms and monitor the status of grant recipients. We save you precious time and money.
 
We Share Your Interests
We are here to help you become connected to the issues you care about most. Your charitable interests and priorities are important to us because committed, caring citizens are so important to our community's well-being.
 
We Care About the Future
By setting up a fund, you have the ideal opportunity to 
create a legacy for yourself and for our area.

By establishing a fund with us, you'll know your gifts are in good hands. Our staff can help you identify where your gifts will best benefit the community.
 
The result is a lasting legacy that addresses the needs of today and the challenges of tomorrow, establishes a tradition of philanthropy and ensures that your fund will 
develop community capital to improve the quality of life now and well into the future.
