General Donations

If you do not have a specific fund or cause in which to donate, we recommend that you make a general donation to the POISE Endowment Fund. The POISE Endowment fund is an unrestricted fund. The income generated from this fund is used to fund proposals received by the Foundation from our many grantees.

The Foundation’s Distribution committee will make recommendations to the Board based on the income available from this fund and the number and amount of grant requests received. Grant requests are increasing in both number and amount requested. By making a general donation, your donations help reach many organizations serving the African American community.

POISE Foundation is a United Way Donor Option organization.  Our United Way Donor number is # 1066.
