Start an Advisor Managed Fund
We understand the trusted relationships you have with your clients and the complexities of managing multiple funds. With an advisor managed fund, you can consolidate philanthropic giving while retaining management of the assets. Your clients enjoy all the benefits of a DAF, and we provide expert support on community needs and grant decisions.

Establish an Endowment for a Nonprofit
An endowment is a lasting gift that supports a nonprofit indefinitely. Your client’s contribution is invested, and a portion of the annual growth is distributed to the nonprofit to help fund their mission year after year. This ensures their impact continues for generations to come.
