What are MCFs due diligence requirements?
Due diligence is the process MCF uses to ensure that organizations are qualified to receive grants and are capable of fulfilling your charitable intent. The due diligence review typically involves our receiving and reviewing the organization’s current 501(c)(3) tax-exempt letter as well as financial and programmatic information. Organizations other than religious institutions must also comply with the Foundation’s nondiscrimination policy, which is: “The Marin Community Foundation will not knowingly support organizations, projects, and programs that discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, gender, national origin, age, medical condition, veteran status, marital status, disability, ancestry, sexual orientation, or any other characteristic protected by law. We therefore require that all grant applicants and recipients submit a signed Nondiscrimination Policy confirming compliance with the Foundation’s policy and with all applicable local, state, and federal anti-discrimination
