These funds provide annual income for the causes you care about most and offer tax advantages while making a lasting difference. Imagine how your generosity can sustain the missions closest to your heart.
Scholarship Funds
Transform lives through education with a Scholarship Fund. Your support can help deserving students in Catholic schools or specific fields of study achieve their dreams.

See how scholarships turn hope into opportunity and help shape the future.
Donor Advised Funds
Empower your giving with purpose and flexibility through a Donor Advised Fund (DAF). More than a tax-efficient, personalized way to support your favorite causes, a DAF is a tool for making a meaningful impact. Starting with $5,000, you can support multiple Catholic or public organizations, enjoy tax-free growth, and involve your family in a shared legacy of generosity.
