Benefits of the Giving Fund

The Giving Fund is a powerful way to manage your charitable giving.

Thousands of individuals and families choose a Giving Fund because it's:

Simple – In minutes, you can open a Fund online, contribute assets, and start recommending grants to your favorite charities. You can also make contributions in one year for tax purposes while prayerfully deciding what you'd like to recommend for support now or over time.

Smart – You'll enjoy better tax benefits than giving to a private foundation. Your Fund also makes it easy to donate appreciated non-cash assets for the greatest tax advantage.

Convenient – You can track your Fund online, 24/7. You can view your balance and history, easily run a report to see all gifts to a particular ministry, set up recurring grant recommendations so checks go out automatically, and print one simple receipt at tax time.

Christian – Unlike secular donor-advised funds, the Giving Fund has biblical guidelines. This means the money you give will only go to Christian ministries or other public charities that don't conflict with Christian values, such as your alma mater or the arts.

Anonymous – Your Fund is entirely removed from public searches, and grant checks can go out from your Fund without your name on them, if you choose.

Growing – You can choose an appropriate investment strategy for your Fund and then watch it grow.
