Why an Acorn Fund?
There are many reasons why establishing an Acorn Fund is a great way to pursue your charitable goals.

• By creating a fund that a child or grandchild can contribute to and watch grow, you can help instill a sense of pride and cultivate a spirit of giving among your family.
• You can build a multi-generational fund where all members of the family have an opportunity to contribute to the endowment.
• You can use contributions in memory of a loved one to begin a fund that will grow and will honor him or her permanently.
• You can set your fund’s goals to reach its permanent status on a special date such as a milestone birthday, graduation, wedding, or  anniversary.
• Acorn Funds provide a vehicle for donors who wish to contribute towards an endowment with the expectation of a future estate, insurance settlement, or a real estate or business sale.
