Start a Fund - It’s Easy and Rewarding for You and Your Family
CCF provides you with a simple, powerful, and highly personal approach to giving with a variety of tools to help you achieve your charitable goals.
You may create a fund with gifts of cash, stocks, bonds, real estate, or other assets.
You may start a fund with as little as $10-15,000 and build it over time.
You may name your fund for your family or business, or in honor of any person or organization you choose.
You may include your family members in making grant recommendations or to become successor advisors to your fund.
Most charitable gifts qualify for maximum tax advantage under federal law.
Most of our funds are endowed, which means they are permanent. You may give away up to 4% of the total value of your fund every year, but the principal remains a source of charitable giving forever.
Choose the type of fund that's right for you:

It's all in the family - The Mullins and Emken Family, that is. When Janice Mullins moved to Charleston with her family five years ago, she was already familiar with community foundations. She is a successor-advisor for a fund honoring her grandmother, Grace Emken, at the Winston-Salem Community Foundation.
Here, she wanted to connect with her new community through her charitable giving. "CCF will be my eyes and ears in the community."
