RSF’s November Grant-Making Activity

December 11, 2009

By Kelley Buhles

Often at this time of year people are looking to make their year-end tax deductible donations to their favorite charities. RSF Donor Advised Funds offer a way to get an immediate tax deduction for your gift to RSF and then allow you to recommend grants to qualified nonprofits over a longer period of time. In addition, through our Donor Advised Fund Investment Portfolios your charitable dollars will continue to grow while being invested in one of our cutting edge, socially responsible portfolios.

Currently we have over 100 donor advisors making grants in all three of our focus areas. In November, RSF’s Donor Advised Funds recommended 60 grants totaling $484,217 to the following organizations:
