  • Significant tax deductibility, in most instances

About the funds in the Community Foundation

Funds are the building blocks of the Foundation. The Allegany/Garrett Community Foundation is a collection of separate funds, each with its own donors and charitable purposes. The Funds are similar to individual Foundations, with the exception that administration, investment management, program support, and trustee oversight are shared, significantly reducing costs.

The Allegany/Garrett Community Foundation is an initiative of the Tri-County Council of Western Maryland.
