Community Foundation 2024 Annual Report

Indian River Community Foundation's clients have spent a lifetime giving back. Last year alone, this resulted in a record $22 million in grants from donor advised funds and other permanent endowments. Many of the charities that receive these dollars are in fragile financial positions, yet they continue to do more. More to help vulnerable children, struggling families, and fragile seniors. More to promote the arts. More to protect and preserve the environment. All during a period of the largest intergenerational transfer of wealth in American history.

To do our part to support and sustain these important causes, last spring the Community Foundation launched "Giving Forward," a $50 million leadership initiative encouraging generous people to make charitable gifts to permanent endowment funds today that were originally planned as charitable bequests in the future. So far, more than $18 million is committed to this effort and we are just getting started.

Whatever inspires your generosity, Indian River Community Foundation can help. Thank you for taking time to learn about our progress toward achieving our mission of “building a better community through donor-driven philanthropy.”
