TYPES OF FUNDS

Donor Advised Funds
A Donor Advised Fund is just what the name implies: a donor establishes a fund at the Foundation with a contribution of cash or other assets. The donor then can recommend distributions from the investment income to the charities of his/her choice.

Perpetual Annual Campaign endowment funds
Creating a Perpetual Annual Campaign Endowment (PACE) ensures that your contribution to United Jewish Appeal’s Annual Campaign continues indefinitely, continuously changing lives and meeting the needs of Jewish Toronto long into the future.

Designated Funds
In an ever-changing world, designated funds provide a stream of permanent income to safeguard the programs and organizations that matter most to you and your family.

Field of Interest Funds
Target your charitable giving to broadly-designated spheres of interest. Support programs that enhance quality of life for our elders, promote educational experiences for our young, advance Jewish arts and culture, or strengthen links between Canadian and Israeli Jews.

Unrestricted Funds
When you create an unrestricted fund, you provide sustaining financial resources to address opportunities and needs within the community. This ensures the community has emerging funds available to fulfill the highest principles of tikun olam.

youth philanthropy Funds
When young people in our community are approaching the time of their Bar or Bat Mitzvah, they have the opportunity to get involved in a tzedakah project that is both personally satisfying and of value to the community. Creating a Youth Philanthropy Fund in their own name introduces them to a lifelong habit of philanthropy, exposing them to a diverse group of Jewish organizations that are working to improve Jewish lives at home, in Israel and around the world. Each year they will recommend distributions from their fund to the charity of their choice. Establishing a Youth Philanthropy Fund encourages our teens to be philanthropists and future leaders in our community.
