Terra Nova Trust

The Terra Nova Trust is a donor-advised fund of the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation .
The donors are Christopher V. Bean and Robert B. Stephenson.

Terra Nova Trust was created in 1989 as a Private Operating Foundation. On or about Decemberr 27, 2000, the assets of the Trust were turned over to the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation where the trust continues as a donor-advised fund.

Fund Purpose: Grants from the Trust will be made to support projects and initiatives that relate to history, historic preservation, architecture, landscape architecture and/or town planning within Jaffrey, within the Monadnock Region and/or within New Hampshire or to projects and initiatives that are of special interest to the Fund Advisors.

Fund Advisors: The Fund Advisors will be Christopher V. Bean and Robert B. Stephenson until such time they request that the Monadnock Community Foundation assume this role. Upon the death or resignation of either, the other may continue as the sole Fund Advisor. Upon the death of both, the Monadnock Community Foundation shall become the sole and permanent Fund Advisor.

Grants: We will make grants in amounts that will be consistent with policies of the Monadnock Community Foundation but reserve the right to make larger grants if the occasion arises or to close out the fund entirely by transferring the assets to one or more other non-profit organizations.
