Starting a
Legacy Fund
Our connections to the community and our administrative expertise make us a sound choice for whichever style of endowment fund you’d like to start and gives us valuable insight into emerging needs and pressing issues facing North Okanagan residents. We handle complicated bookkeeping and offer low fees, so you can focus on the most fulfilling part… giving.
To get started with a Legacy Fund we work with you to determine the fund structure (donor-advised, undesignated, and designated) best suited to your giving objectives and then guide you through selecting one of the fund types.
