International Community Foundation (ICF) Overview
Why ICF exists
• Most U.S. giving is domestic—less than 1.9% went international in 2002;• Most U.S. overseas giving goes to U.S. based international NGOs (e.g.
Red Cross, CARE, Save the Children, TNC, CI, WWF, etc) as opposed to local NGOs overseas– Less than $843 million among organized funders went to foreign
nonprofits in 2002.• Individuals give more than foundations and corporations combined but
they are not legally able to gift internationally without going through a public charity “intermediary” like ICF
• Our core business is helping individual and family foundations to facilitate their cross-border charitable giving to community based overseas NGOs.
• ICF currently works with donors originating from Mexico, Dominican Republic, Argentina, and China with their diaspora charitable giving needs– One community that we have begun to work with is from Oaxaca

Cross-Border Structured Remittance Pilot Challenges & Lessons Learned
• Having an experienced NGO with strong local is critical but not easy to find;•Strong local leadership is also critical;• Internal politics inevitably arises;•Projects can be time/staff intensive;•Cross-border communications are key;• Migrant donors’s first priority is to send money directly to family members not community based projects.
ICF’s key challenge is matching migrant donors’ community specific interests with viable projects and the right NGO to help execute program.
