Types of Funds

Perpetual Annual Campaign Endowment (PACE)

When you create a PACE fund, your annual gift will endure forever to carry on your charitable goals. In order to fully endow your annual gift into the future, consider an endowment which is twenty times your Federation Annual Campaign gift. A minimum gift of $10,000 is required to establish a PACE Fund.

Lion of Judah Endowment Fund (LOJE)

Women who have created an endowment of $100,000 or greater are recognized as LOJE. Their endowment ensures a contribution at the Lion of Judah level ($5,000) is made to the Federation's Annual Campaign each year. More information about LOJE gifts.

Field of Interest and Designated Funds

You decide how your gift is to be used. Grants from your fund are awarded in your name or in honor or memory of a loved one to benefit a field of interest or designated Jewish agency or synagogue.

Donor Advised Funds

Donor advised funds are owned and invested by JFGI to provide donors the opportunity to place contributions into a charitable fund where recommendations can be made immediately or over time to Jewish and general charities.

Donors receive a charitable deduction for the value of their contribution at the time deposited into the donor advised fund, not when it is distributed. However, some Donor Advised Fund holders choose their own investment advisors to manage their funds. Click here for more information on JFGI's Outside Investment Advisors program.

Donor Advised Funds are generally pooled with JFGI's Endowment portfolio and managed by our professional investment manager, Commonfund. Click here to review JFGI's current administrative fee schedule.
