“Many years ago, Ed and Karen Porter established a special family fund at the Foundation for their children, Dave, Barbara and Debra. Dave Porter explains, “One of the ways I became aware of Donor Advised Funds at the Jewish Community Foundation was through a fund that my parents set up. They seeded it and they matched our gifts up to $500 each year. It was a real incentive for me and my sisters and now our spouses to get involved in the community and to give. Now we are starting to do the same thing for our kids. It created a meaningful giving platform for all of us.”
