28: Evidence that Fund Statements Are Available

Confirming
Reconfirming

The community foundation should demonstrate that fund statements are provided, and show the frequency of fund statement distribution.

Key Elements 
  1. Frequency of fund statement distribution
  2. Distribution of fund statements
  3. If statements are only provided on an opt-in basis, evidence of how that option is communicated to donors

Material Changes

For the purposes of reconfirmation, a material change is any change that decreases the frequency of the distribution of fund statements. If the organization only changed the method of distributing fund statements (e.g., paper to electronic statements), no documentation is required. If you have had material changes, you will need to resubmit any documentation related to material changes. Review all key elements for this requirement by clicking the "confirming" toggle in the upper left corner of this page.
