A Donor-Advised Fund That Aligns with Your Values

April 24, 2024
By Barnabas Foundation

The Stewards Fund, a donor-advised fund, provides you with a simple, flexible and tax-efficient opportunity to have tremendous Kingdom impact.

Like a charitable giving account, a donor-advised fund allows you to give cash, stock and other appreciated assets into a single fund. From there, you can request grants be made to multiple ministries that are close to your heart.

Why are donor-advised funds so popular? Allow us to break down the benefits:

Timing. Receive an immediate tax deduction at the time you make a gift into the Stewards Fund. Then, advise how and when you wish your gifts to be distributed.

Flexibility. Grants can be requested at any time using our convenient online grant system. You may choose to give in one-time or recurring increments, and you may designate your gift to meet specific needs.

Simplicity. Simplify your giving and record-keeping by making all gifts of cash, stocks or appreciated assets into a single account.

Privacy. You can choose to make any or all grants anonymously.

Expertise. Benefit from the knowledge and expertise of Barnabas Foundation staff who will manage and liquidate your non-cash asset gifts.

Cost-Effective. Many families use their Stewards Fund account as a simplified and cost-effective alternative to establishing a private foundation.
