About us
Future Fund is a group of young professionals that are community-minded, forward-thinking leaders who have invested in the future of Greensboro and Guilford County through the Ann Lineweaver Future Fund Endowment, currently valued at nearly $1.4 million. Future Fund’s mission is to create connections, provide the next generation of philanthropic leaders in the community and, most importantly, grow the endowment to be able to award as much money as possible to nonprofits making a positive impact in Guilford County. To become a member, or a “Funder” as we like to say, you may join annually by donating $150/year, or become a lifetime member for $1250 payable over five years. These contributions go directly to the Future Fund Endowment. Once you become a Funder you may attend networking events, social activities, but most importantly have a say in giving away almost $50,000 to local nonprofits impacting Guilford County. Starting in 2019, Future Fund is changing the way it gives out grants to local nonprofits. In an effort to re-energize the group, and appeal to a fresh set of young leaders, the awards process will now be “Shark Tank meets Nonprofit”. Ten nonprofits will be chosen from the applicant pool to become the Future Fund 10 (FF10). They will receive four sessions of coaching from local community mentors. Those mentors will help each of the FF10 refine their three minute pitch to prepare for their debut at Future Fund 10 LIVE. On April 16, 2019 the 10 nonprofits will present their pitch to over 300 community members at Triad Stage. The audience members will vote on the top prize and that winner will walk away with almost $20,000. Other prizes will be awarded based on community vote and judges vote. No matter what each FF10 member receives, they will all walk away with connections for donations, volunteers, board members, and greater visibility for their cause in the community.

Future Fund is an initiative of the Community Foundation of Greater Greensboro. ”Funders” make an investment of $150 into the Future Fund endowment each year. Once they are a funder they can be involved as much or as little as they like in the events and committee throughout the year. Started in 1999 by a group of community-minded, forward-thinking young professionals, the Future Fund is a pipeline for Greensboro’s next generation of philanthropic leaders. It gives members the chance to become part of something bigger than themselves while making their city a great place to live, work and play. Active members plan and produce the innovative Future Fund Program to award over $50,000 to local nonprofits. Future Fund members, better known as Funders, gain experience in personal philanthropy and grantmaking through their work on various subcommittees to plan programs and events. They tap into opportunities for leadership experience, mentoring, and developing new skills.
