Field of Interest Funds work much like our Community Fund, except that donors identify an area of interest that they would like to target their support. Examples include the arts, heritage, environment, health, seniors, children, recreation, relief of poverty, or education. With these funds, the donor defines the area of interest but empowers the Foundation's Grantmaking Committee to select worthwhile projects to support. The minimum donation to open a community impact fund is $25,000.
