Why The Community Foundation?

There is unique added value to working with the Community Foundation of Draper City:

• We are local. Assets stay in the community. While our investment returns are comparable to other financial institutions, we are a locally sustained nonprofit existing solely for the benefit of other nonprofits in Draper city.
  
  
• We make a permanent difference. Gifts to the Community Foundation can continue working long into the future. The Community Foundation was built to last. Donors can feel secure that our staff, volunteers, investments, and mission are organized to strengthen our community in perpetuity.
  
  
• We know philanthropy in the Salt Lake Valley. We offer donors help in identifying effective ways to aid the community you call home. We can help you direct your giving to target specific problems (e.g. hunger, literacy, saving the environment, community activities or the state of the arts).
  
• We can insure anonymity.
  
  
• We make complicated gifts easy. We help donors make gifts in a cost and time effective way. It is not always efficient or feasible to establish a scholarship program or private foundation. We are able to accept a variety of assets, support multiple organizations through one fund, and help donors to leave a legacy.
