FUNDS AT CFAAC
Every passion has
a fund, every gi昀琀
has a purpose.
Opening a fund at CFAAC is the
first step in directing your generosity
toward the causes that matter most
to you. As dedicated advisors in
philanthropy, we are committed to
helping donors maximize their impact
and ensure giving flows where it is
needed most.
Each year, current and prospective
fund holders are provided an Annual
Investment Update covering CFAAC
fund performance, current market
conditions, and our long-term
investment approach.
We are honored to work with
individuals, families, companies, and
nonprofits who have established
funds at CFAAC. Their generosity
is creating real change across Anne
Arundel County. In 2025, we
welcomed 44 new Donor Advised,
Corporate Advised, Designated, and
Nonprofit Agency Funds. We thank
our fund holders for their trust in
building a stronger community.
CORPORATE ADVISED FUNDS
