Assistance for New Foundations

We are occasionally asked by generous and charitable individuals how to start and operate a foundation.  We are very interested in sharing our experiences to help others form and run private foundations.  We offer advice regarding structure and operations, not legal or tax matters.  Please contact Jacqueline S. Mata the Executive Director to schedule a meeting.  Whether you are in the formative stages or currently operating, we would love to share our expertise in grantmaking.  Equally, we are interested in learning about new ideas in the field of philanthropy.
