A Principled Donor-Advised Fund

Donor-advised funds are the fastest-growing charitable tool in America. These funds offer donors of all giving levels a means to simplify their giving in a tax-friendly way.

DonorsTrust is the oldest and largest donor-advised fund committed to the principles of liberty. We help donors like you across the country maximize the impact of their giving.

We have granted out more than $2 billion to more than 3,000 charities

Whether to groups promoting the arts, community associations, religious causes, education, or public policy, these grantees protect our liberties and strengthen our civil society.

DonorsTrust does not offer tax advice. You may not rely upon any calculation performed here, as every taxpayer’s facts and circumstances are different.

DonorsTrust is the community foundation for liberty. We are not bound by geography, but by a commitment to the principles of liberty. We—and the donors we work with—believe in limited government, personal responsibility, and free enterprise. Our confidence is in the power of private philanthropy to solve our greatest challenges.
