VISION FIDUCIARY MONEY MARKET FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 1994
(UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(1) ORGANIZATION

VISION Fiduciary Funds, Inc. (the "Company") is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end, management
investment company. The Company only consists of one diversified portfolio,
VISION Fiduciary Money Market Fund (the "Fund").

(2) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. These
policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

<TABLE>
<S>  <C>
A.   INVESTMENT VALUATIONS--The Fund's use of the amortized cost method to value its portfolio
     securities is in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the Act.

B.   REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS--It is the policy of the Fund to require the custodian bank to take
     possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System, or to
     have segregated within the custodian bank's vault, all securities held as collateral in
     support of repurchase agreement investments. Additionally, procedures have been
     established by the Fund to monitor, on a daily basis, the market value of each repurchase
     agreement's underlying collateral to ensure the value of collateral at least equals the
     principal amount of the repurchase agreement, including accrued interest.

     The Fund will only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other recognized
     financial institutions, such as broker/dealers, which are deemed by the Fund's adviser to
     be creditworthy pursuant to guidelines established by the Board of Directors (the
     "Directors"). Risks may arise from the potential inability of counterparties to honor the
     terms of the repurchase agreement. Accordingly, the Fund could receive less than the
     repurchase price on the sale of collateral securities.

C.   INVESTMENT INCOME, EXPENSES AND DISTRIBUTIONS--Interest income and expenses are accrued
     daily. Bond premium and discount, if applicable, are amortized as required by the
     Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the "Code"). Distributions to shareholders are
     recorded on the ex-dividend date.

D.   FEDERAL TAXES--It is the Fund's policy to comply with the provisions of the Code
     applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year
     substantially all of its taxable income. Accordingly, no provisions for federal tax are
     necessary.

E.   WHEN-ISSUED AND DELAYED DELIVERY TRANSACTIONS--The Fund may engage in when-issued or
     delayed delivery transactions. The Fund records when-issued securities on the trade date
     and maintains security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to
     make payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or
     delayed delivery basis are marked to market daily and begin earning interest on the
     settlement date.

F.   OTHER--Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date.
