If you want to address our community’s greatest needs as they change over time, an unrestricted fund is the best option for you. Created by visionary philanthropists who care about the community beyond their own lifetimes, these funds allow Triangle Community Foundation to identify needs and opportunities in the community as they develop and to target dollars where they will be most effective.

Your fund can be set up in three ways:
  • Permanent Endowment
    The fund's principal is invested in perpetuity and only earnings are distributed for grants.

  • Growth Fund
    The fund is invested for capital appreciation, but allows distribution of principal.

  • Pass-Through Fund
    The principal is not invested and the fund anticipates principal distribution.
To speak to someone about establishing a fund, please contact the Foundation’s Development Team or call us at 919-474-8370.
