5 for the Future
Imagine Iowa’s future if each of us chose to invest 5% of our assets in community causes.

Nearly $30.4 billion will transfer from one generation to the next over the next decade, according to a recent report.
This moment presents a unique opportunity for Iowa communities that can retain and reinvest a portion of these funds through charitable giving.
Realizing this vision takes planning and preparation, and the Community Foundation of Northeast Iowa is your trusted partner.
Cultivating Homegrown Generosity
We know you care about the places where you’ve put down roots. Seeding our community’s future is a collective effort. When we all leave five, our hometowns thrive!
Planned endowment giving can help protect, grow, and spread wealth that would otherwise disappear from our communities and our state. This continues the quality of life Iowans cherish.
Our endowments are a trustworthy tool to ensure your long-term local giving. We can also help you give to local charitable causes or connect you directly with nonprofit organizations doing exceptional work on the ground in your hometown.
Capturing just 5% of the transfer sum over the next decade would create over $1.5 billion in new endowments. Over 20 years, these endowments could support grantmaking of over $1.8 billion.
