One where you have the choice to retain governance   control and decision-making related to the administration of the foundation and grant disbursement direction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We can help you realize your giving intentions by providing a customized solution to support the operation and   administration of your private foundation, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Investment management\u00b9<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Trustee services<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Recordkeeping<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Board and committee meeting facilitation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Compliance and administration services<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Granting disbursement and awards program management<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-left\" id=\"h-public-foundation\">Public foundation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A donor-advised fund within a public foundation can be an efficient way of making charitable gifts and grant   disbursements to your favourite causes through registered charities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With a minimum initial contribution of $25,000, you can give, grow and grant your donations without the initial setup   costs and ongoing administrative, operating and governance responsibilities that come with the management of your own   private foundation. This donor-advised fund can also be named as you wish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This may be the right option for you if you\u2019re looking to be more strategic in your giving while your trusted   investment professional continues to manage the assets in a segregated investment account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The donor-advised fund is established with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.giftfunds.com\/\"
