Subject RE: mark had no better place
The Community Foundation is just like a DAF for Mark — he gets the tax benefit now in a more generous
form and he is not subject to 5% minimum giving and he still controls the funds. It is smart for him to use
this vehicle. I guess there are some minimums if you use this structure — I should understand that better.
They key thing we are talking about as I understand it is an easy way for people to give to high impact
causes where we structure things for them. This is becoming clearer to me. We would have about 4 poor
world health things, 1 poor world agriculture thing and 2 US education things that people could direct
money to. If they commit in advance to give some minimum amounts to these things then they get our
commitment to manage the funds. I am unclear of we are the actual DAF or we let them pick a DAF and
just enter into a collaboration agreement.
