Which type of fund is right for you?
Designated Funds
Establishing a Designated Fund allows you to support the good work of a specific nonprofit organization. Because it’s given through your community foundation, your gift provides the organization you select not only funding but planned giving investment management services and the power of endowment.

Field of Interest Funds
By establishing a Field of Interest Fund, you can target your gift to address needs in an important area of community life. Our board awards grants to community organizations and programs that are making a difference in the area you select. Your gift stays flexible enough to meet community needs in your interest area— even as those needs change over time.

Donor Advised Funds

Unrestricted Funds
When you establish an Unrestricted Fund, your gift addresses a broad range of local needs—including future needs that often cannot be anticipated at the time your gift is made. Work with community leaders to evaluate all aspects of community well-being: arts and culture, economic development, education, environment, health and human services, neighborhood enhancement, and more. The flexibility of your unrestricted gift enables the LACF to respond to the community’s most pressing needs, today and tomorrow.
