# Grant from a Community Fund

As a [fund manager](https://guide.charityvest.org/community-funds/fund-managers), you have the ability to make grantmaking decisions on behalf of your fund.

Once you've decided where you wish to grant to, you simply need to:

1. Select "Issue Grant" from the overview page of your fund.
2. Search for the recipient charity by name or EIN.
3. Enter the grant amount, purpose, information shared.
4. Submit the grant! It will be reviewed for [compliance](https://guide.charityvest.org/for-donors/getting-started/grants-to-charity#disallowed-grants) and [disbursed to the charity](https://guide.charityvest.org/for-donors/getting-started/check-grant-status).
