Financials & Investments

A respected fiduciary you can trust. 

We take our responsibility to carefully manage and invest our donor’s assets seriously, so that they meet their philanthropic goals today and into the future. 

Assets are invested prudently to ensure grants can be made to address current community needs, while also preserving and increasing the assets for future generations of grantmaking. 

Generous giving and prudent investing have increased your Community Foundation’s assets from $1,000 in 1967 to over $223 million today.

Investment Options

You can trust BGCF to steward the philanthropic assets in your fund so that they are ready when you need them. We offer a variety of investment solutions, including a selection of investment pools with access to world-class investment managers and strategies.  

Investment Pools

We offer six investment pools for our non-endowed funds, designed to meet a range of philanthropic goals and time horizons. As a fund advisor, you must select one investment pool for the entire balance of your fund.  We maintain your fund’s investment pool allocation through regular monthly rebalancing. Pool allocations may be changed once per year or upon a significant change in charitable goals or time horizon. For additional detail, view the investment pool description in the table below.  For a current performance report, please contact us.
