Community Group Funds

Create a fund that supports your work, year after year

A Charity Fund gives your organisation a long-term source of funding that can continue supporting your work well into the future.

Like individual donor funds, Charity Funds are pooled and invested through Acorn. Each year, the investment returns are reinvested to help grow the fund. Once the fund reaches the distributions threshold of $25,000, a portion of the investment income is distributed back to your organisation annually.

Because the capital in the fund is preserved, your organisation can build a sustainable source of income that supports your work year after year.
