“Exploring FAQs on Fund Agreements”
Thursday, May 19th at 1-2pm. Part of the Midwest Community Foundation Webinar Series.
Summary: Over time, community foundations' component funds evolve beyond the scope of their original fund agreements and documentation, leaving foundation staff wondering how they can make adjustments with or without the original donor’s consent and involvement. In the "FAQs About Fund Agreements" publication released in March 2022, CMF's Experts in Residence Dr. Brittany Kienker, Ph.D. and Jennifer Oertel outline frequently asked questions involved in managing these funds and fund agreements over time. Join us for this webinar as Dr. Kienker and Oertel highlight the key takeaways and dive deeper into some of the most common issues community foundation staff may face when managing component funds.
