Our Goal: In 2016, Jerry Groswold left a matching challenge bequest of $250,000 to support an Endowment Fund. Our goal is to raise a minimum of $250,000 as matching monies to sustain the Grand Foundation for future generations.

Donor Advised Funds

Make a Donation — Support Charities — Grow the Balance

When you give, you want your charitable contributions to be as effective as possible. When you donate to your donor-advised fund, you're making a tax-deductible donation to the organization sponsoring the fund, but because your account is a donor-advised fund, you advise the organization on how to grant the money out to your favorite charities. Your donation is also invested based on your preferences, so it has the potential to grow, tax-free, while you're deciding which charities to support.
