Rockefeller Charitable Giving Fund

Beginning with John D. Rockefeller, the Rockefeller family’s commitment to philanthropy has resulted in a legacy of impact that spans seven generations. The Rockefeller Charitable Giving Fund, administered by the American Endowment Foundation (AEF), offers a donor-advised fund option for clients of Rockefeller Global Family Office.

Donor-advised funds are a fast-growing charitable giving vehicle, made popular by their characteristically simplified approach to grantmaking and attractive tax benefits to donors. A donor-advised fund functions as a charitable account that can be invested to generate returns. Tax benefits are realized upon making the donation, and the majority of gifted assets can grow tax-free.

Three easy steps to establish a donor-advised fund with the Rockefeller Charitable Giving Fund, administered by the American Endowment Foundation:

Step 1

Collaborate with your Private Advisor to complete, sign, and submit your donor-advised fund application.

Step 2

Upon approval, your investment account will be established, and your financial advisor will guide you through the process of funding it.

Step 3

Upon completion of all steps, AEF will provide you with access to the online granting portal for making grants to your favorite causes and charities.
