INVESTMENT POLICIES WERE PRESENTED TO THE COMMITTEE BY THE INVESTMENT COMMITTEE CHAIR AND SUBSEQUENTLY APPROVED BY THE BOARD. IN ADDITION TO OVERSEEING THE INVESTMENTS OF THE ORGANIZATION, THE SUPPORTED ORGANIZATION'S HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICE PROGRAM OFFICER OVERSEES THE DISCUSSION WITH THE ORGANIZATION'S BOARD REGARDING THE ANNUAL DISTRIBUTION OF ASSETS FOR HEALTH CARE RELATED GRANTS. SECTION E, QUESTION 2A: THE SUPPORTED ORGANIZATION RECEIVED MORE HEALTH CARE RELATED GRANT REQUESTS THAN IT HAS ASSETS AVAILABLE TO DISTRIBUTE. BECAUSE THE ORGANIZATION'S SOLE MISSION AND PURPOSE IS TO ASSIST THE SUPPORTED ORGANIZATION IN CONDUCTING ITS HEALTH CARE ACTIVITIES, THE ORGANIZATION IS RESPONSIVE AND ALLOWS THE SUPPORTED ORGANIZATION'S HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICE PROGRAM OFFICER TO OVERSEE ITS HEALTH CARE GRANTMAKING PROCESS. TO BE EFFICIENT AND EFFECTIVE, THE ORGANIZATION ESTABLISHED A DONOR-ADVISED FUND AT THE SUPPORTED ORGANIZATION WHO PUBLICIZES THE AVAILABILITY OF GRANTS FROM THE FUND AND ALLOWED THE ORGANIZATION TO USE ITS ONLINE GRANT PORTAL TO GATHER APPLICATIONS. THE ORGANIZATION MAKES ONE GRANT TO THE DONOR-ADVISED FUND. THE SUPPORTED ORGANIZATION DISTRIBUTES THE GRANTS TO THE GRANTEES THAT WERE RECOMMENDED BY THE SUPPORTED ORGANIZATION AND APPROVED BY THE ORGANIZATION'S BOARD FROM THE DONOR-ADVISED FUND. REVIEW OF BOARD MINUTES DETAIL THE ORGANIZATION'S ACTIVITY. THE ACTIVITY IS RELATED TO HEALTH CARE GRANTMAKING AND REQUIRED BOARD GOVERNANCE SUCH AS MINUTES AND POLICY APPROVALS. 874 834 40 7262918 297096 7531056 13084 15000 874 6772775 827148 305400 1605 30000 7262918 6141809 974994 311900 2128 30000 6772775 7865941 -1375067 311400 7665 30000 6141809 1.00000 0 0 0 CASH 2026-03-11 834 CASH VALUE 232769892 BERKS COUNTY COMMUNITY FDN 237 COURT STREET READING PA 19601 501(C)(3) 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 PART I, LINE 2E: PERSON(S) INVOLVED: KEVIN MURPHY, PRESIDENT AND FRANCES AITKEN, TREASURER ARE CURRENT EMPLOYEES (PRESIDENT/CEO AND CHIEF OPERATING/FINANCIAL OFFICER, RESPECTIVELY) OF BERKS COUNTY COMMUNITY FOUNDATION.
