The Community Foundation of Wabash County meets National Standards for operational quality, donor service and accountability in the community foundation sector.
The National Standards Seal by our name indicates official confirmation from the Council on Foundations that we have met the most rigorous standards in philanthropy. It affirms our commitment to financial security, transparency and accountability. As a grantmaker, the Foundation endeavors to enrich the quality of life in Wabash County by responding to emerging and changing needs and by sustaining existing organizations and institutions through grants in support of the following categories: arts and culture; community and civic development; health and human services; education; recreation and the environment. The National Standards for U.S. Community Foundations Program was established in 2000 in cooperation with the Council on Foundations. National Standards guide community foundations in establishing legal, ethical and effective operational practices that serve as blueprints for internal development and benchmarks for external assessment. The 43 National Standards require The Community Foundation of Wabash County to document its policies in donor services, investment management, grantmaking and administration. To receive confirmation of National Standards compliance, The Community Foundation of Wabash County submitted its organizational and financial policies and procedures to a rigorous peer review. The Community Foundation of Wabash County received this seal of approval in November 1997.
