        <ExplanationTxt>Monroe County Bar Foundation keeps track of contributions in their accounting software. The funds must be used specifically for the designated purpose(s) established in the original grant application. Organizations receiving funds are required to report back to the Foundation on the expenditures of the grant after six months and a final report after one year. The Foundation is normally familiar with or will research the Organizations before it makes a contribution. The Foundation will value the purpose the Organization is striving to accomplish and the impact its services have on the Community in determining contributions.</ExplanationTxt>
