Foundation
How It Works
A foundation within the Community Foundation Tampa Bay can look just like a private foundation. But there are fewer costs, time commitments and administrative hassles. Get started with $100,000. Then you, your family or your business can focus on the joys of giving while we take care of the behind-the-scenes details.
In many ways, it works just like a donor advised fund:
Give
- You can contribute a variety of gifts, including cash, stocks or other assets like real estate or land.
- Gifts to your fund are tax deductible.
- You may give to the fund at any time.
Grow
- Invest your contribution in one of our professionally managed investment pools. Or, if you prefer, your financial advisor can continue to manage the assets.
- Assets in your fund grow tax free.
Grant
- Make distributions from your fund to any of your favorite charities, anywhere and at any time.
- Grants can range from $100 to $1,000,000 or more.
- Use our online fund management tool to recommend grants from your fund, make gifts to your fund or research giving opportunities.
- The online management tool keeps your giving history organized in one place. No more storing multiple receipts!
- There are no annual minimum grant distribution requirements.
For Our In-House Foundations
we offer additional services including:
- Multigenerational planning.
- Guided discussions around family philanthropy.

- Opportunities to network with like-minded philanthropists who also have foundations within the Community Foundation Tampa Bay.
- Grantmaking assistance.
