The Foundation recently received approval from the Internal Revenue Service to become a community foundation. While this change in status from a private foundation does not alter the mission of the Foundation, it does give the Foundation more flexibility when it comes to grant giving. It also permits the Foundation to establish donor advised funds, whereby the donor may name the fund and advise the Foundation on distributions from the fund. The donor may be an individual, a family or a community organization.

Please consider including The Eagles Mere Foundation in your Will. While your attorney should be consulted before making changes to your Will or adding a Codicil, the following example may be helpful:

I give to The Eagles Mere Foundation, a community foundation serving Eagles Mere, PA, the sum of $________ to be used for general charitable purposes.

The Eagles Mere Foundation is tax-exempt under Section
501[c] (3) of the Internal Revenue Service Code and is registered with the Pennsylvania Commission on Charitable Organizations.

A copy of the Official Registration and Financial Information of The Eagles Mere Foundation may be obtained from the Pennsylvania Department of State (1-800-732-0999). Registration does not imply endorsement.
