Scranton Area Community Foundation

CHARITABLE PLANNING Charitable Planning – At the Scranton Area Community Foundation, we help the people of Northeastern Pennsylvania meet their personal finance goals while making a difference for the future through Charitable Planning services, including bequests, charitable gift annuities, estate/legacy planning, and more! With charitable planning, one gift can become a lifetime investment. FOUNDATION MANAGEMENT At the Scranton Area Community Foundation, we provide foundation management services to other private and public foundations serving the people of the Lackawanna County region and beyond. By partnering with us, foundations can substantially reduce the expenses related to operations, grant-making, accounting, and reporting because we perform this work on behalf of the partnering foundations. In addition to reducing overhead costs, the trustees or Boards of these foundations can focus their efforts on accomplishing their missions, knowing the back-office work will be completed in a thorough and professional manner by a competent team. In many cases, this also means that foundations using the Scranton Area Community Foundation’s management services have the ability to distribute more funds to the causes they care about!
