The John and Sharon Fick Charitable Fund
John and Sharon Fick created their fund out of their heartfelt generosity. John is a former board member and volunteers as sous-chef at the oyster table for our holiday party.
They plan to recommend grants to specific charitable projects or organizations, offering a convenient and strategic means to support multiple area nonprofits.
Donor Advised Funds (DAFs) empower donors to play an active role in their charitable giving with the ease and expertise provided by The Community Foundation. DAFs are a flexible and tax-efficient way for individuals and organizations to contribute to charitable causes. Donors can make contributions to the fund and then recommend grants to their chosen charities over time, offering a strategic approach to philanthropy.

About Donor Advised Funds
Donor Advised Funds provide a simple, powerful and very personal approach to giving.
Donor Advised Funds are very flexible, both in purpose and through time, allowing your goals to evolve.
When you establish a Donor Advised Fund, you may recommend charities to support at any time during the year, or you may request support from foundation staff to identify the best ways to make a difference in the causes you care about most.
