Ministry Partners: We’re here for YOU!

At the National Christian Foundation (NCF), we come alongside charities with tools and expertise to help you expand your major gifts program.

One of those tools is a Single-Charity Fund. Your supporters make gifts into your fund, and then you go online to recommend grants from the fund to your organization.

Below are a few reasons to consider this innovative solution:

  1. Open the Door to Stock Giving: You can expand your fundraising and development efforts by helping your donors learn how they can give appreciated, publicly traded stocks and other non-cash assets in creative ways that multiply the impact of their giving. With a Single-Charity Fund, your charity can easily receive non-cash gifts. NCF takes care of the administration, providing the donor a receipt and liquidating the shares.
  2. Build for the Future: If you’re looking to set aside dollars designated for campaigns, endowments, special programs, or establishing a foundation, a Single-Charity Fund can be an efficient solution. Once established, your donors can contribute cash or non-cash assets into the fund.
  3. Offer Charitable Gift Annuities: For your donors who will need a source of ongoing income but still have a heart to give, a charitable gift annuity provides fixed payments for life, a portion of which are often tax free. NCF places the present value of the future gift in your Single-Charity Fund and manages the administrative details, so you can focus on serving and educating your supporters. NCF handles the heavy lifting so you don’t have to.

How a Single-Charity Fund Works

After opening your fund with our simple application, you can encourage your donors to make strategic, tax-advantaged gifts into your fund at NCF.
Then, your balance has the potential to grow over time with your choice of investment options, allowing you to build a personalized mix that suits your charity’s goals. NCF offers multi-asset investment pools that range from stable value with no risk of fluctuation in principal value to very high risk with substantial exposure to market fluctuations.
When you’re ready, you just log in to your fund any time on NCF’s website to request grants to your charity to support your work.
