Support Organizations

The Support Organization is an attractive alternative to forming a private foundation.  The following benefits exist due to its public charity status acquired through affiliation with CREATE Foundation:

  • Maintains its own separate legal non-profit status
  • Maintains its own board of directors
  • Maintains its own grantmaking policies
  • Contributions earn maximum tax deductibility
  • There is no minimum payout for grants
  • No excise taxes are assessed

Besides easing the administrative and cost burdens of managing a private foundation, affiliating with CREATE Foundation as a support organization allows you to take advantage of many aspects of our public charity status.

 

Benjamin and Corinne Pierce Charitable Foundation:  The Pierce family is hard at work in Alcorn County, providing support to organizations they care about through their Foundation. 

The Henry Mize Foundation:  Mr. Mize established this Foundation to provide support to three organizations that he loved.
