Signature Investment Program

Individuals and businesses in the Quad Cities region wishing to establish charitable funds of $500,000 or more at the Quad Cities Community Foundation can leverage the expertise of a professional advisor to invest their donated funds through our Signature Investment Program.

By participating in the Signature Investment Program, donors unlock the power of giving through a unique partnership that allows a professional advisor to invest funds. The program maximizes earnings for the benefit of your client’s charitable wishes and their community.

    • Donors who maintain a charitable fund of $500,000 or more may request that their fund’s investment allocations be facilitated by a professional advisor in a separate Signature Investment account.

    • The advisor works for the Community Foundation and manages funds consistent with the Community Foundation’s Investment Policy Statement and for the benefit of the donor’s intention and charitable causes.

    • Donors receive quarterly statements detailing fund activity and can access fund activity online 24/7.

    • Donors recommend or designate grants from their fund to support the communities and charities they care deeply about, and the Community Foundation distributes these awards.

    • By working with the Community Foundation, donors solidify their philanthropic goals and legacy and amplify goodness in the community.

    • Donors can access the full expertise of their Investment Advisor and the Community Foundation. For more than six decades, the Community Foundation has been the trusted resource for community generosity.

    • Donors can maximize their tax savings through strategic gifting and by taking advantage of tax credit programs, such as Endow Iowa and Illinois Gives.
