Philanthropic infrastructure
for advisors, institutions,

About CGF

One independent sponsor.
Three charitable vehicles.
Built for everyone at the table.

Charitable Gifting Fund is an independent Delaware 501(c)(3) public charity that functions as the institutional backbone for sophisticated charitable giving programs. We serve wealth management firms, financial advisors, and mission-driven nonprofit institutions — each with a distinct role in the charitable giving process.

Rather than building or maintaining their own charitable infrastructure, our partners rely on CGF to handle the 501(c)(3) sponsorship, IRS compliance, investment oversight, and donor-facing administration for donor-advised funds, pooled income funds, and charitable remainder trusts.
