Don’t miss this important tax saving opportunity!
The IRA Charitable Rollover Act now extends to December 31, 2009.  What is the IRA Charitable Rollover Act?  Passed by Congress, it allows anyone 70-1/2 years or older to make an outright gift from their IRA up to $100,000 a year to a qualified charity – like the Community Foundation - without first claiming it as income and being taxed.  Take advantage of this important extension today.  Consult your tax advisor or call us at 301.695.7660 for additional information.

 
Welcome to The Community Foundation of Frederick County, an organization that speaks to those of us who live in Frederick County, who love our community and want it to be the best it can be and who strive to leave a lasting legacy for its continued prosperity.

Every day, we work with donors who want to establish new funds with us or contribute to funds we already hold—funds aimed at promoting a range of worthy causes. We manage these funds and invest them for long-term growth, holding most in perpetuity. With portions of the funds or their investment return, we distribute grants and scholarships that touch and transform the lives of so many Frederick County residents. 

Our impact is for good, forever, for Frederick County. Explore this web site to learn more and join us in creating a better Frederick County through acts of philanthropy and charitable giving.
