Donor Advised Funds

An Invitation For Those Who Want To Be Closer To Community

We face unprecedented times, and the impacts on our communities are far beyond our control. At Tahoe Truckee Community Foundation (TTCF), we see the direct impacts on the ground. Our local businesses are striving to predict business impacts amidst a global trade war; our high-school scholarship applicants are struggling to plan their future while university systems and funding are under threat; our forest workforce is trying to prioritize forest management projects and safe campgrounds with reductions in staffing; and our safety net organizations are responding to food security programming with federal funding freezes.

Why Move Your Donor Advised Fund to TTCF?

Charitable dollars are intended to help communities, not make big banks bigger. Have you considered moving your donor advised fund to TTCF and wondered if it would make a difference? If the answer is yes, here is how.

A donor advised fund at TTCF:

  • Aligns your philanthropy to a place that you love and to strategies that are informed by a network of trusted partners (including more than 70 nonprofit partners, 20 public agencies and a dozen business and industry associations)
  • Provides access to the amazing TTCF team that is deeply embedded in on-the-ground strategies with partners in this region and beyond
  • Leverages other donor and funder dollars from individuals and organizations that believe regionally guided, flexible and nimble financial assets will build more resilience

Beyond Tahoe-Truckee: A Fund With Wider Impact

By holding your fund in Tahoe-Truckee, you won’t be limited to this region alone. We see the intersection of places and people who care.
