Due to the broad mission, individuals, businesses and other nonprofit groups often contribute to private institutions within the fund. 

This button does not specify which city this community fund this donation is from. but does specify which year. In 1929, the stock market crash launched the U.S. into the Great Depression. With an increase in federal government aid, private charities were no longer successful. This fund button shows the community's trust in more broad, community-wide charities.
