The Stoughton Area Community Foundation is an established 501(C)3 nonprofit organization with tax-exempt status. We have taken the necessary legal steps to create a Foundation with the personnel and resources needed to ensure that the Foundation’s assets are well-protected and invested carefully. Various other nonprofit community organizations/projects have signed “PASS THROUGH AGREEMENTS” with the Foundation allowing them to use the available resources of the Foundation for their fundraising efforts. The Stoughton Opera House, Stoughton Area Resource Team (S.T.A.R.T.), Future Farmers of America (FFA), and the Collins Field Restoration Project are currently eligible for such “pass-through” contributions. All money designated for these organizations goes directly through us to them. The Foundation does not charge any fees for their services. A “pass-through” agreement is a win-win situation. The SACF manages all of the funds and provides the legal means for other organizations to receive donations. Since the Foundation is now dealing with a larger pool of funds, it allows us, SACF, to apply for larger grants from other foundations to add to our growing pool. |
