(II) DESIGNATED FUNDS: WHERE THE BENEFICIARIES AND THE SCHEDULE OF DISTRIBUTIONS ARE ESTABLISHED AT THE TIME OF THE GIFT AND ARE APPROVED BY THE CHARITABLE DISTRIBUTION COMMITTEE.

TO FACILITATE AND PROMOTE PHILANTHROPY THROUGH DONOR ADVISED FUNDS

JCF'S PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITY IS TO SERVE DONORS WHO HAVE ENTRUSTED IT WITH THEIR CHARITABLE DOLLARS. JCF TAKES THIS RESPONSIBILITY VERY SERIOUSLY AND IS COMMITTED TO TREATING ITS DONORS WITH THE UTMOST INTEGRITY AND RESPECT. JCF HANDLES ALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE RESPONSIBILITIES FOR EACH DONOR-ADVISED FUND AND PROVIDES DONORS WITH REGULAR REPORTS ON CONTRIBUTIONS, GRANTS, INVESTMENT INCOME, FUND BALANCE AND ALL OTHER ACTIVITY RELATED TO THE FUND. JCF HONORS ITS COMMITMENT TO DONORS BY PROVIDING SERVICES THAT MAKE THEIR CHARITABLE GIVING ADMINISTRATIVELY EFFICIENT, ECONOMICALLY ADVANTAGEOUS, AND PERSONALLY REWARDING. THESE INCLUDE SIMPLIFYING THE GRANT-MAKING PROCESS SO THAT DONOR CONTRIBUTIONS FLOW QUICKLY AND EASILY IN THE CHARITABLE STREAM, OFFERING A CHOICE OF INVESTMENT VEHICLES DESIGNED TO HELP DONORS' CHARITABLE DOLLARS GROW, KEEPING DONORS INFORMED ABOUT CHANGING TAX LAWS THAT MAY IMPACT THEIR CHARITABLE GIVING, SUGGESTING WAYS FOR DONORS TO INCORPORATE PHILANTHROPY INTO THEIR ESTATE AND GIFT PLANNING, EDUCATING DONORS ABOUT GRANT-MAKING STRATEGIES AND COMMUNAL PHILANTHROPIC RESOURCES, SAFEGUARDING DONOR CONFIDENTIALITY, AND FACILITATING INTERGENERATIONAL PHILANTHROPY.
