Resumo
Issue of local development is nowadays very relevant. According to the customary perception in the
post-socialistic countries, the local development should be ensured primarily by municipalities. Over time,
under the influence of various factors, there has been a change of paradigm. One of alternative initiators and
implementers of development processes on local level is community foundation. The aim of this study is to
evaluate the benefits of community foundations in the field of local development. Furthermore, advantages
and disadvantages of community foundations are analysed. The study provides empirical findings of own
research in the field of community foundations in conditions of Slovak republic. The data set was obtained
primarily from the questionnaire survey, as well as from own analysis of annual reports and financial
statements of community foundations, existing in Slovakia.
