Donor Advised Fund

A donor advised fund is similar to creating your own ‘private foundation' but without the costs and administrative burdens. A portion of the annual disbursement from the fund will support Maternity Health while the remaining amount can be directed to your other favorite charities.

Give: Make a contribution and name your fund (e.g. The Smith Family Fund). GIVE NOW

Grow: Maternity Health Foundation's professional asset managers invest the fund and provide an annual statement of earned income available to grant.

Grant: Recommend grants to Maternity Health Foundation and your other favorite charities.

This is a unique opportunity for donors at a minimum commitment of $50,000 ($10,000 x 5 years) to retain control, flexibility and involvement with their giving, while ensuring a legacy of philanthropy long into the future. When you establish your fund, you will receive a tax receipt for your initial donation as well as all subsequent contributions. If you use appreciated securities to establish your fund, you will also be exempt from paying capital gains tax.
