Fund Options

Our advanced giving opportunities offer donors multiple strategic avenues for legacy giving.

As an alternative to a private foundation, funds can be directed for a specific purpose with guidelines as to who the money is to be distributed.

DONOR ADVISED FUNDS
AGENCY DESIGNATED FUNDS

These funds are set up by other nonprofit organizations to receive donations to be used for their own programming and operations.

A donor may direct their contributions to be used within a specific field such as the arts, health, education, a geographical area, or another area of interest.

FIELD OF INTEREST FUNDS
UNRESTRICTED FUNDS

Donations are distributed at CFFI’s discretion. These support a broad range of charitable causes through our grant making process.

A scholarship can be set up for a particular school or field of study with eligibility requirements and an advisory committee.

SCHOLARSHIP FUNDS
DESIGNATED FUNDS

Gifts made to a specific project, organization or charity.
