32nd Annual Report to the Community

JULY 2017–JUNE 2018 DEAR FRIENDS,

The ancient Greek philosopher Heraclitus of Ephesus (c. 500 BC) is credited with saying “change is the only constant in life.” With these words, Heraclitus has successfully influenced the way that we look at, consider, embrace, reject, and celebrate change.

The Community Foundation has been influencing change since 1986 by way of every donor’s vision and desire to transform and improve the community. In 2011, the board of trustees made an intentional decision to increase influence through strategic grantsmaking based on its Frederick County Human Needs Assessment. Now, in 2018, the Needs Assessment has been updated, and the influence for change continues as the outcomes are studied and strategic grantsmaking evolves as a result.

“Influence for change” is only possible because of “U” and the way “U” see the future of Frederick County and its residents. “U” is the most important letter in the word “Influence” because “U” are the most important driver in the Community Foundation’s efforts to address the pressing needs in the community.

The community’s efforts to influence change in FY2018 was evident by the 1,740 donors who made more than 3,400 gifts to one or more of 700 funds. Most gifts were added to our existing endowment that spends 5 percent of the annual market value in grants and scholarships. Grants benefitted more than 250 nonprofits, and nearly 300 students received scholarships for post-secondary education or trade and technical training. In addition to education, areas that were supported by grants included youth programs, elder care, historic preservation, health care, health and human services, those who were homeless or precariously housed, animal welfare, the environment, the arts, civic causes, and more.

Thank you for your support in FY2018 and the confidence you placed in us as your charitable giving partner. The year of 2019 holds some unprecedented and exciting opportunities for all of us to not only influence change but also embrace and celebrate it. We look forward to sharing more about this with “U” in the coming year. It is For Good. Forever. For Frederick County.

Either way, establishing While many funds are started with gifts of cash totaling $25,000 or more, a fund with the Community non-cash gifts such as real estate, securities or life insurance are also options. Foundation is a wonderful way For gifts of $500,000 or more, you may recommend an investment professional to sustain a cause that is near outside of the Community Foundation’s investment pool, pending certain and dear to you, support specific criteria. Your financial advisors can help you determine what type of gift to use, areas of education, honor loved and the Community Foundation encourages you to consult with them prior to ones or establish a legacy. Once making your gift. you’ve decided on your goals, the Community Foundation staff ••HOW INVOLVED DO YOU WANT TO BE WITH THE FUND? can help you determine the type Do you want to review grant applications? Do you want to sit on a scholarship of fund that will ensure your selection committee? Do you want the comfort of knowing that a check is sent charitable goals are met. to your favorite cause each year? Do you want your family to be involved with the fund after your passing? Your intended involvement helps to determine the type of fund that you choose.

••IF YOU’D LIKE TO CONTRIBUTE LESS THAN $25,000, DON’T WORRY. You can “plant a seed” by starting a fund and becoming a member of the Acorn Society. Simply select a name for the fund and agree to grow the fund to at least $25,000 within two years or less. Once your fund reaches $25,000, disbursements can be made. Other ways to create impact include contributing to a field of interest fund or any of our other funds, or establishing your legacy by deciding on a planned gift. No matter how much you decide to contribute, the Community Foundation makes the act of giving easy.

32nd Annual Report to the Community 71 HOW TO START YOUR OWN FUND Types of Funds The Community Foundation of Frederick County holds two categories of funds: permanent funds and pass through funds. Permanent funds generally never spend the initial gift and subsequent gifts, with a portion of the fund supporting the charitable purpose defined by the fund’s founding donor. Permanent funds include endowed funds and quasi-endowed funds. Endowed funds distribute 5 percent of the annual market value, never invading gift principal. Quasi-endowed funds distribute 5 percent of the fund’s annual market value each year. Pass through funds may distribute all gifts as well as the investment return for the charitable purpose. Permanent funds and pass through funds may be any of the following types of funds: designated, unrestricted, donor-advised, scholarship, field of interest, agency, or fiscal sponsorship. For more information about types of funds, please see page 78.

Property You Can Use to Create Your Fund Some people have asked if the Community Foundation accepts only cash contributions. The answer is no. There are many ways to establish a fund. Some ideas you may wish to consider are listed here.

••CASH You may establish your fund by giving a check to the Community Foundation. You receive the maximum tax deduction for your contribution in the year you make it. Any unused deduction can ordinarily be used over the five succeeding years.

••SECURITIES You may donate securities to your fund. You get the maximum tax deduction, equal to the current value of the securities. If that deduction is larger than what you can use in the year of your gift, the excess amount may ordinarily be deducted over the five succeeding years.

If the securities are appreciated, you pay no capital gains tax. If you own depreciated securities, it may be best if you sell them, take the loss for personal income tax purposes, and contribute the proceeds to the Community Foundation.

••REAL ESTATE Your real estate holdings can also benefit charity. Gifts of long-term appreciated real estate offer advantages similar to gifts of appreciated securities. Real estate will be accepted by the Community Foundation if it is readily saleable and does not require long-term management. You are required to obtain an appraisal to establish the value of the real estate for your tax deduction.

••LIFE INSURANCE You may donate your life insurance policy to your fund. You receive an immediate tax deduction, usually in an amount equal to the cash surrender value. If you wish to keep the policy in force, your continued premium payments are tax deductible if the Community Foundation is the owner of the policy. If you don’t want to give up the policy, you can name the Community Foundation as a full or partial beneficiary.

••ART AND OTHER TANGIBLE PERSONAL PROPERTY You may use your paintings, sculptures, jewelry, etc. to establish a charitable fund as long as the property can be sold easily. You will be responsible for obtaining an appraisal to establish the value of the personal property for your tax deduction. You can start a named fund for as little as $25,000—using cash, securities, real estate, life insurance, art, or other assets.

72 The Community Foundation of Frederick County Gifts to any fund are gladly accepted throughout the year, in any amount.
