Setting up a Named Fund with Foundation Derbyshire is a quick and simple way of starting your philanthropic journey with us and putting your generosity to work in the local community.
We take the time to listen and understand how and why you want to give, before working with you to create a bespoke fund that reflects your charitable wishes and circumstances.
Our Named Funds are an easy, tax-efficient and cost-effective alternative to establishing a charitable trust that take the hassle out of giving (we assume all of the legal and administrative burden) and leave you with the best bits …
The best bits
- You have the freedom to decide which projects to support and can be involved as much or as little as you wish.
- You can be briefed about community issues, areas of need and new funding opportunities or let our expert team direct your funding to those that need it most.
- In addition to regular feedback on the difference you are making, we can arrange for you to visit projects that you’ve funded and see the impact that your generosity is having in the community – our grant recipients love to meet the people that have supported them and made their work possible.
- Grants can be made in your Fund Name or anonymously.
Fund types
We have two types of fund; Endowment and Flow-through. We never forget that everyone is different, so please click below to find out more or call us if there’s anything at all you’d like to discuss.
