Foundation Achieves National Standards
|
|
Canton Community Foundation recently received notice that it is among those community foundations in compliance with the National Standards for U.S. Community Foundations administered by the Council on Foundations. National Standards represent the highest measure of accountability and transparency in philanthropy.
We are proud to have met such rigorous standards in donor services, investment management, grantmaking and administration. Near our Canton Community Foundation logo is the National Standards Seal. This is similar to the Good Housekeeping Seal for community foundations. It says that Canton Community Foundation has demonstrated its commitment to financial security, transparency and accountability.
