Main Fund TypesDonor-Centric

Donor Advised Fundthe donor periodically recommends
how to use proceeds from a gift (Fund); an excellent, low-cost alternative to a private foundation. Field of Interest Fundthe donor instructs grants to be given towards a particular program area, such as education, health, etc., rather than restricting money to one organization. Designated Fundthe donor instructs that grant dollars to go to one (or more) specific charity, usually in perpetuity. Scholarship Fund--the donor invests in the future by helping deserving students (pre-school to grad school); donors can specify eligibility requirements. Unrestricted Fundperhaps the most vital, yet overlooked charitable opportunity, the donor releases charitable energy for the broadest array of both timely and timeless needs.
