Butterfield provides charitable funds that help individuals, families, and organizations steward the resources God has entrusted to them. Each fund offers a different way to support ministries and charitable causes while expanding generosity over time.
Charitable Fund Options
Donor Advised Fund (DAF)
Flexible generosity that grows with your calling.
A Donor Advised Fund allows you to contribute assets to a charitable account and recommend grants to the ministries and charities you care about over time. It provides a simple and flexible way to organize your giving while supporting multiple causes as opportunities arise. Many donors use this fund as their personal “charitable checkbook” for ongoing generosity.
Best For:
Individuals or families who want flexibility in their giving.
Specific Purpose Fund
Focused generosity that advances a mission you believe in.
A Specific Purpose Fund is designed to support a particular ministry, organization, or field of interest such as healthcare, education, or missions. Individuals, families, or groups can establish a fund dedicated to advancing a specific charitable vision. This allows generosity to be concentrated where it can make a lasting difference.
Best For:
Donors passionate about supporting one ministry or cause.
Endowment Fund
Legacy generosity that impacts generations.
An Endowment Fund is designed to provide long-term support for a ministry or charitable purpose. Contributions are invested and a portion of the fund is distributed each year to support the designated cause. This allows your generosity to continue making a difference for years to come.
Best For:
Donors who want to create a lasting legacy of generosity.
