Established
in 1990, International Community Foundation is a public charity working to foster lasting
philanthropy to benefit under-served communities throughout
the Americas and Asia. With over 70% of International Community Foundation’s recent
grantmaking benefiting charitable causes along the Baja California
peninsula, International Community Foundation is committed to assisting US donors with charitable
giving needs from Tijuana to Los Cabos.
For U.S donors, International Community Foundation provides
all the traditional advantages associated with a public charity
including tax benefits, savings on administrative costs, assurances
that one’s wishes will be followed after their lifetime,
as well as the opportunity for individuals and families to
actively participate in supporting charitable causes. |
Depending
on the needs and interests of individual donors, International Community Foundation undertakes
research on specific programs and geographic areas; obtains
detailed information about potential grantees; facilitates
site visits; fulfills required due diligence on projects receiving
grants; and provides timely progress and financial reports
to donors.
For individuals wishing to make a difference in Baja California
or anywhere else in Mexico, the International Community Foundation also offers a reliable and
efficient tax deductible vehicle without being subject to
the restrictions set forth in the 1994 U.S.-Mexico Tax Treaty
which stipulates that tax-deductible individual giving in
Mexico be limited to one’s Mexican-sourced income. |
