A portion of each IWCF member’s annual contribution is considered an Individual Grant Designation (IGD). This $500 contribution is directed by the member to be distributed as either two grants for $250 each or one grant for $500. IWCF will make contributions in each member’s name to those organizations qualified by the IRS as having 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status, government entities such as schools, public libraries and park departments (as long as the grant furthers a public purpose), and religious organizations.
Members may also designate to the IWCF Pooled Fund, Administrative Fund, or the Susan Smith Endowment Fund.
