Throughout the subsequent years, people have been known to extend a hand towards benefiting others. It may be a single individual or an organization. They come together to provide funds to benefit the poor and the community at large. In most cases, they come up with various projects to build schools, churches and other community facilities. Some can extend their lending hands to finance education and medical appeals. Both of them can either operate under private or government initiatives. The state has the responsibility of ensuring that there is equitable shares through public charities.

It is important to distinguish between nonprofit and state funding. Private organizations come together for purposes of helping the poor. They are in charge of relieving the financial burden that an individual or a group is facing. In most cases, they release their funds to provide facilities in churches, hospitals and other medical research groups. The state provides funds for the community at large. It generates equitable resources to cater for needs including religion, education and science.

The Community has a lot to gain from the state funding. The donations are sometimes tax deductible. This gives them restrictions when it comes to overseeing their projects. The state can work hand in hand with the community and other private organizations. Their charitable work is evident through the numerous facilities they have created. In fact, it is responsible for all projects that relate to private schools, shelters for the homeless and churches.

A community initiative requires a diversified set of board of directors. Their main duty is to take an active role on planning and decision making process. The board of directors must not be 50% related by blood, marriage or outside business partnership. This will work towards avoiding any cases of nepotism and favoritism among blood members.

The community should always be alerted on any project that is underway. In most cases, the onset and completion are released through reports for public consumption. This is because almost 33% of the state funding comes from the community. Whenever there are any discrepancies, the board of directors have to go back to the drawing board to correct these shortcomings.

Private entities can be categorized into two; non operating and operating foundations. Operating foundations often release funds for purposes of completing their own projects. On the other hand, non operating foundations provide financial aid for other charitable entities. In both cases, they have to meet specific qualifications.

The internal revenue service is arm of the government that carries out monitoring and evaluation roles. They take part in assessments of the financial capability of an organization towards benefiting certain projects. They do so by carrying out monthly or annual audits to determine the viability of the said organization.

In this time and era, many people have benefited from both state and private funding. Most of them have gone to schools, received medical support and found shelter through these initiatives. The community remains accountable for everything that goes on around them by taking active participation in the audit process. In most instances they have worked hard to achieve the equitable resources.
