For current donors

We value our donors and have defined what you can expect from us and how we can help you leverage your role as a fund advisor:

Our commitment to donors

In an effort to strengthen community capacity across North Carolina, we pledge to:

  • Maintain an excellent investment program
  • Provide clear and accurate information about your fund
  • Respond to your inquiries and correspondence promptly
  • Understand the emerging needs of North Carolina’s communities
  • Offer fund advisors opportunities to partner with other donors and organizations of similar interests
  • Recognize the community spirit and generosity of our donors
  • Engage new generations of philanthropists
  • Maintain an on-going partnership with you to help you fulfill your charitable objectives

Your role as fund advisor

As an active partner in the work of the NCCF, you play a critical role in enriching other lives through philanthropy.  An effective giving plan is the result of donors embracing the following responsibilities:

  • Evaluating your own philanthropic goals annually
  • Educating yourself on unmet charitable needs in your community
  • Seeking out the best organizations to accomplish your charitable goals
  • Talking with NCCF staff about any changes in your charitable interests
  • Carefully reviewing your fund statements and annual grant-making packet
  • Participating in opportunities provided through the NCCF to strengthen your giving plan

If you have questions or comments about your fund or gift, please contact Carrie Gray, Director of Donor Engagement at cgray@nccommunityfoundation.org or 919-256-6906. The Donor Engagement team is working hard to establish channels to keep you informed of your funds, the recipients of your philanthropy and giving options.

Please visit us again here soon, as we’re in the process of building a limited-access donor portal that will allow you to check your fund balance online, determine the amount you have to distribute and tap into a host of special options and communications designed just for our fund-holders.
