Supporting Organizations

You can create an excellent alternative to a private foundation.

Established by an individual, family or business with a gift of at least $5 million, a supporting organization is a separate nonprofit corporation that qualifies as a public charity through its affiliation with Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation. We provide an array of philanthropic and administrative services to make the giving experience simple and enjoyable.

A supporting organization is:

• An excellent alternative to a private foundation
• Fewer administrative responsibilities
• Lower cost
• Select some board members, which may include family members
• Maintain personal involvement
• Retain your identity
• Support cherished causes
• Our skilled Finance & Investment Team will provide world class support
