Community foundations are tax-exempt public charities serving thousands of people who share a common interest—improving the quality of life within their communities through the creation of charitable funds that help meet the challenges of changing times and critical need.

Community foundations serve as administrators of what is, in essence, a community endowment: a collection of gifts, large and small, unrestricted and donor-advised, given to enhance the quality of life for the local community.

A fiscal sponsor is a nonprofit organization that provides fiduciary oversight, financial management, and other administrative services to help build the capacity of charitable projects.

KAAN has chosen to partner with as its fiscal sponsor to streamline its financial and administrative operations. This collaboration allows KAAN to focus primarily on its mission and programs, leveraging TFEC's expertise in financial management, grant administration, and regulatory compliance. By utilizing TFEC's established infrastructure and resources, KAAN ensures that its funds are managed efficiently and transparently, while also benefiting from the broader network and support that TFEC offers to its sponsored organizations. This strategic partnership allows our all-volunteer organization of leaders to focus on serving the adoptee community effectively.
