Through the Wapakoneta Area Community Foundation you may create a charitable legacy tailored to your specific needs and interests.

• A fund may be established with a contribution of cash, securities, or other property.
• The foundation offers seven distinct types of funds: unrestricted, field of interest, designated, scholarship, organization endowment, donor advised, or administrative fund.
• Name the fund. You may choose any name you wish for your fund, your own or that of your family, a friend, or an organization.
• You may take a tax deduction at the time the gift is made.

The Wapakoneta Area Community Foundation is able to assist you by:

• Managing the fund, overseeing its investment, and maintaining tax records.
• Filing federal and state tax returns and provides an independent audit.
• Assuring that grants are always awarded in the name of your fund, a lasting symbol of your caring.
• Issuing regular financial reports to donor on the status of the fund.
