The Community Foundation seeks to help donors and nonprofit organizations grow their funds through careful investing. Donors establishing a fund at CFAAC, depending on whether the fund is endowed or non-endowed, may recommend one of our three investment pools - Preservation, Conservative or Balanced.  Each of the pools represents an asset allocation strategy.  Click here to download an explanation of our investment pools. 

All funds established at CFAAC are managed as provided by the Investment Policy Statement approved by the Board of Trustees.  The Finance & Asset Management Committee oversees the process and selects and monitors the investment manager.   Click here to review a copy of our Investment Policy Statement.
