Finance and Accounting

The Finance and Accounting team uses strategy and experience to responsibly steward The Community Foundation’s assets. Our finance team also disperses funds and financial reports to donors, advisors, partners, and grantees. With proven experience in sound financial stewardship, our expertise enables you to make the most of your investment. We manage all donor funds according to the highest standards of accountability. An annual audit is conducted and an additional independent committee of professionals reviews the results. At the end of each fiscal quarter, donors receive a financial report on the investment returns and grantmaking activity of their fund.
