Unrestricted Funds
Comer Family Legacy Fund
Approximately 20% of HCCF’s total grantmaking is unrestricted—designed for the general benefit of the community and determined by the Board of Directors. Through unrestricted grantmaking, HCCF focuses on the greatest needs and opportunities to make Hendricks County a better place.
Unrestricted funds are endowment funds typically established to provide support for general, unspecified charitable purposes at the discretion of the Community Foundation, with no advice or recommendation from the Donor (or any persons designated by the Donor).
