Many companies showcase community pride by providing financial support to local charities. The Racine Community Foundation can help companies:
- simplify existing corporate giving programs
- ensure corporate giving survives ownership changes
Simplify Corporate Giving
Corporate giving programs can be time-consuming and complex to administer and manage.
Companies and businesses with a charitable flair can benefit by establishing a corporate fund through the Racine Community Foundation. The Racine Community Foundation staff will administer and invest the fund. You can designate specific organizations to receive support from the fund when you establish it, or you can recommend grants to a variety of organizations throughout the year.
You’ll simplify your corporate giving by establishing a fund through the Racine Community Foundation.
Address Corporate Changes
In the fast-changing business world, companies that are headquartered here today may not be tomorrow. With buyouts and mergers come changes in corporate giving philosophies. In some cases, communities find new owners are not as invested in the community as the families who founded or managed the business for generations.
If your company is considering a sale or merger, consider a gift of corporate stock to the Racine Community Foundation. The tax benefits accompanying such a gift may be substantial.
More importantly, the gift ensures your company will continue to have a positive impact on our community—even if ownership changes bring changes to the company’s corporate giving policy.
