Northern Indiana Community Foundation Achieves National Standards Accreditation

The Northern Indiana Community Foundation (NICF) recently received accreditation with the nation’s highest standard for philanthropic excellence, the National Standards for U.S. Community Foundations.

The National Standards for U.S. Community Foundations program requires community foundations to document their policies for donor services, investments, grant making and administration.  The program is designed to provide quality assurance to donors, as well as to their legal and financial advisors.

The NICF offers a range of charitable funds.  In addition to affirming the organization’s philanthropic services, the accreditation validates the NICF’s grantmaking practices for the nonprofit community.
