Q: Can I give to a secular charity through the Stewards Fund?

A: Yes! Whether your passions include the symphony, your alma mater, or a local pet shelter, you can give to most secular 501(c)(3) organizations, as long as your gift is not for a mission or project in conflict with Barnabas Foundation’s statement of Christian faith, principles or values.

Furthermore, the Stewards Fund allows you to support your church and other faith-led ministries that some secular foundations and donor-advised funds will no longer allow you to fund. Learn more about the Stewards Fund and distribution guidelines at BarnabasFoundation.org.
