Funds & Giving Options

Every individual, family and corporate donor has unique interests, assets and circumstances. That’s why our custom fund vehicles, from scholarships to donor advised funds, allow for flexibility and a host of solutions for your giving. We also accept a wide range of asset types, including ones that many commercial brokerage firms are unable to accommodate.

Fund Types
Donor Advised Fund

A donor advised fund is a flexible giving vehicle that offers immediate tax benefits and allows donors to support the charities of their choice on their own schedule through grant recommendations.

Private Foundation Alternative Fund

A private foundation alternative fund enables donors to facilitate their family’s charitable giving activities without all the administrative and management burdens of a traditional private family foundation.

Unrestricted Fund

Unrestricted funds allow donors to ensure their gifts go to support the most pressing community needs and the most effective solutions, however they may change over time. The Future of L.A. Fund is a special unrestricted fund that provides a simple and efficient giving mechanism for donors who want to focus their gifts on high-priority needs within Los Angeles County as identified by CCF’s expert advisors.

Field of Interest Fund

A field of interest fund allows donors to make an impact on their area of interest without committing to any specific organization by authorizing CCF’s experts to issue appropriate grants on their behalf. For example, if you wish to support children’s health, CCF staff will identify the most effective organizations working in the field to receive your funds. If the issue area changes, as when orphanages were replaced by the foster care system, our staff will work to seek out new organizations whose work fulfills your original charitable intent.

Restricted Fund

A restricted fund empowers donors to support specific organizations of their choosing through regular grant making without having to manually execute recommendations for every grant occurrence.

Scholarship Fund

A scholarship fund lets donors choose a fund option, establish criteria and determine their own degree of involvement while supporting students of any age, background or education level.

Charitable Asset Management Partnership (ChAMP)

Charitable Asset Management Partnership (ChAMP) is a customized investment option for donors who prefer to have their own trusted financial advisor manage the majority of their charitable assets. It provides comparable benefits to a private foundation or scholarship fund along with a full range of supporting services. The minimum initial gift is $500,000.

Asset Types
Cash

Cash gifts allow donors to claim a current tax deduction of up to 60 percent of adjusted gross income and carry forward contributions exceeding that limit for up to five subsequent tax years.

Cryptocurrency

Email donorrelations@calfund.org for more information.

Real Estate

A gift of commercial or residential real estate owned for more than a year entitles the owner to a tax deduction for the property’s full fair market value while allowing the owner to avoid capital gains tax.

Publicly Traded Securities & Mutual Fund Shares

Gifts of publicly traded securities and mutual fund shares qualify donors for an immediate charitable deduction of the full fair market value and an exemption from capital gains tax on the appreciation.

  • Instructions for Contributions of Public Security Certificates, Stocks and Bonds Download Download
  • Instructions for Electronic Transfer of Stocks and Bonds Download Download
Closely Held Stock

Closely held stock creates liquidity for charitable giving with illiquid assets while avoiding capital gains taxes, minimizing or eliminating estate taxes, and maximizing the tax deductibility of the donation.

Retirement Plan Assets

Charitable contributions of various forms of retirement plan assets assist donors in reducing or eliminating income and estate taxes while simultaneously providing for the causes they support.

Partnership Interests

Donations of partial interests from an investment or business partnership permit donors to retain partial ownership of their business interests while also pursuing their charitable passions.

Bequests

Bequests enable donors to support the community while retaining complete control over assets during their lifetime through a living trust or will while earning a full charitable deduction on estate taxes.

Other Complex Assets

We specialize in simplifying the process of converting complex assets into charitable contributions. From commercial real estate to partnership interests, we accept a broad range of asset gifts that many commercial brokerage firms do not have the ability or the experience to accommodate.

The Clark on 54th

In 1995, Lucretia Clark purchased the building at 5365 Crenshaw Boulevard — a step made possible with the support of her husband, Henry Clark — where she had built Renaissance Hair Salon since 1985. It was where her children grew up, where the neighborhood gathered, and where a family's foothold in Crenshaw became something permanent.

The CCF Impact Fund: Activated in Support of Boyle Heights and East LA

On June 17, a fire broke out at a cold storage warehouse in Boyle Heights. It burned for eight days, sending smoke and toxic fumes across the neighborhood and beyond, triggering shelter-in-place orders, school closures, and health warnings that are still unfolding. As of June 24, the fire is out, but the impact is ongoing. We have received $2.05 million in donations so far to support Boyle Heights residents through what comes next — the health concerns, the lost wages, the stress of not knowing what you breathed in or what it will cost you. We have granted out $1.5 million to more than 20 community partners to support immediate relief for impacted residents, and will be making additional grants to support ongoing and evolving community needs.  Below you’ll find the organizations we’re funding, the resources they offer, and how to reach them. If you need help, they’re ready.

When this fire broke out, we didn’t have to start from scratch — we already have relationships with organizations trusted by Boyle Heights residents, and we are able to get funding to them fast. That’s what we do: connect donors who want to help with communities that need it, quickly and transparently.

OUR VISION: A GOOD LIFE FOR ALL IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY The CCF Impact Fund brings to life our strategic framework vision shaped by 2,000+ community voices across all 88 cities: a Los Angeles County where everyone — regardless of zip code, immigration status, or income — has access to stable housing, quality healthcare, economic opportunity, and the dignity of a good life. This is our North Star. The Impact Fund is how we get there — meeting urgent needs today while building the systems change that creates lasting access to opportunity for all. The nonprofits we partner with — organizations with proven track records and deep community trust — know exactly what families need today to survive and what communities need tomorrow to thrive. That’s the power of the Impact Fund: urgent response grounded in long-term vision. THE IMPACT FUND: WHERE URGENCY MEETS STRATEGY The CCF Impact Fund is built on 110 years of community relationships and guided by our strategic framework priorities. We deploy flexible resources within weeks — not months — because our trusted nonprofit partners tell us what’s urgent. Your gift advances five interconnected priorities that together create pathways to a good life: Meeting Basic Needs – Emergency food, stable housing, healthcare access (urgent relief + long-term stability) Building Economic Opportunity – Education, living-wage jobs, financial security (today’s support + tomorrow’s prosperity) Creating Safe, Resilient Communities – Disaster response, climate adaptation, neighborhood safety Ensuring Communities Have a Voice – Civic engagement, advocacy, organizing (power to shape their future) Supporting Healing & Renewal – Community restoration, wellness, connection WHY CCF: SPEED, RELATIONSHIPS, PROVEN RESULTS For 110 years, CCF has been there when Los Angeles needs us most—from the Great Depression through earthquakes, wildfires, and pandemics. We’ve built relationships across all 88 cities with nonprofit organizations that have proven impact and deep community trust. Our 2,000+ partners provide real-time intelligence about urgent needs and emerging opportunities. When the 2025 wildfires struck, we immediately activated our network: within days, we were coordinating with frontline nonprofits to understand gaps; within weeks, we mobilized over $100 million to get resources to affected families by funding nonprofits working on the ground — emergency shelter, food, clothing,[…]

The CCF Impact Fund

OUR VISION: A GOOD LIFE FOR ALL IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY The CCF Impact Fund brings to life our strategic framework vision shaped by 2,000+ community voices across all 88 cities: a Los Angeles County where everyone—regardless of zip code, immigration status, or income—has access to stable housing, quality healthcare, economic opportunity, and the dignity of a good life. This is our North Star. The Impact Fund is how we get there—meeting urgent needs today while building the systems change that creates lasting access to opportunity for all. THE URGENT REALITY: CRISES DON’T WAIT Right now, a family is sleeping in their car tonight. Right now, a child is going to school hungry because their parents fear accessing food assistance. Right now, a senior is choosing between medication and groceries. Access to a good life can’t wait for next quarter’s funding cycle—it needs to happen now. Through our partnerships with 2,000+ trusted nonprofit organizations across Los Angeles County, we hear these urgent needs in real time. Immigration enforcement has created fear affecting 3.3 million residents in mixed-status families who avoid essential services. Housing costs have reached 11 times median income. 66,000 neighbors sleep unsheltered tonight. Climate disasters strike without warning. These aren’t statistics—they’re our neighbors, and they need help now. The nonprofits we partner with—organizations with proven track records and deep community trust—know exactly what families need today to survive and what communities need tomorrow to thrive. That’s the power of the Impact Fund: urgent response grounded in long-term vision. THE IMPACT FUND: WHERE URGENCY MEETS STRATEGY The CCF Impact Fund is built on 110 years of community relationships and guided by our strategic framework priorities. We deploy flexible resources within weeks—not months—because our trusted nonprofit partners tell us what’s urgent. Your gift advances five interconnected priorities that together create pathways to a good life: Meeting Basic Needs – Emergency food, stable housing, healthcare access (urgent relief + long-term stability) Building Economic Opportunity – Education, living-wage jobs, financial security (today’s support + tomorrow’s prosperity) Creating Safe, Resilient Communities – Disaster response, climate adaptation, neighborhood safety Ensuring Communities Have a Voice – Civic engagement, advocacy, organizing (power to shape their future) Supporting Healing & Renewal – Community restoration, wellness, connection URGENT RESPONSE, LASTING IMPACT: When immigration enforcement sweeps a neighborhood and families stop accessing food banks, the Impact Fund deploys within days to support emergency food distribution at trusted community sites. But we don’t stop there—we also fund the organizing work that protects immigrant families and the policy advocacy that creates sanctuary policies. This is how we meet immediate hunger while building a Los Angeles where everyone can access nutritious food without fear. Urgent action today. Systems change tomorrow. Your gift powers both. WHY CCF: SPEED, RELATIONSHIPS, PROVEN RESULTS For 110 years, CCF has been there when Los Angeles needs us most—from the Great Depression through earthquakes, wildfires, and pandemics. We’ve built relationships across all 88 cities with nonprofit organizations that have proven impact and deep community trust. Our 2,000+ partners provide real-time intelligence about urgent needs and emerging opportunities. When the 2025 wildfires struck, we immediately activated our network: within days, we were coordinating with frontline nonprofits to understand gaps; within weeks, we mobilized over $100 million to get resources directly to affected families—emergency shelter, food, clothing, mental health support. We didn’t wait for lengthy proposals. We listened to trusted partners who knew exactly what their neighbors needed and deployed funds fast. This same approach powers the LA Neighbors Support Fund, which pivots as community needs evolve, and our collaborative funds that have channeled millions to urgent priorities. We understand what families need now because communities tell us directly. And we know how to build toward the good life they deserve because they helped us create the strategic framework roadmap. THREE WAYS TO INVEST INURGENT ACTION + LASTING CHANGE Maximum Impact: Trust CCF to deploy where need is most urgent today while advancing long-term systems change Focused Support: Direct your gift to one priority area (e.g., Meeting Basic Needs for food security + housing or Ensuring Communities have a voice ) Specific Organizations: Continue supporting specific nonprofits through your donor-advised fund FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS How quickly will my gift be deployed? We move quickly, within weeks for urgent needs, with an eye toward lasting impact. When our nonprofit partners identify immediate crises like food insecurity or displacement, we respond quickly. Our trust-based relationships eliminate lengthy applications. Simultaneously, we invest in the organizing, advocacy, and systems change that prevents future crises. How do you balance urgent response with long-term vision? That’s the power of flexible funding guided by strategy. We listen to 2,000+ nonprofit partners working directly with communities every day—they tell us what’s urgent now and what systemic changes are needed. The Impact Fund can support emergency food distribution today AND the policy advocacy for living wages tomorrow. For example, in crisis years, 50% might flow to immediate Basic Needs. In stable years, we balance across all five strategic priorities building toward a good life for all. Will I see the impact of my gift? Yes! Reports will show you both immediate relief and progress toward systemic change—families housed, children fed, policies shifted, organizing victories won. We’ll share impact stories from our nonprofit partners demonstrating how your gift created urgent help today and built pathways to a good life for tomorrow. How is this different from other CCF funds? The Impact Fund uniquely combines speed with strategy. It’s built for rapid deployment (unlike slower grant cycles) while remaining anchored in our community-informed strategic framework (unlike reactive crisis funds). It complements our Future of L.A. Fund (endowed for unknowable challenges) by addressing known urgent needs today. ‘Impact Now + Legacy Forever.’ Can I give from my donor-advised fund? Absolutely! Whether you have a donor-advised fund with CCF or another provider, you can recommend a grant to the Impact Fund. It’s fast, easy, and tax-efficient. Why does flexible, unrestricted funding matter? Crises don’t fit into neat categories. A family displaced by fire[…]

Los Angeles Neighbors Support Fund

Family members tell the story of their detained loved ones. Los Angeles Neighbors Support Fund Helps Families Impacted By Raids More than 4,100 people have been detained in LA County since June 6th, when federal authorities began a campaign of immigration raids . They are parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, children – valued members of our community. Most are  workers – contributing vital services and earning the money their families need for rent, food, clothing and diapers. Now, the children and families of those taken are left without what they need for basic necessities. Many more cannot work, go to school, or get medical care out of fear of becoming a target. The raids have created a humanitarian crisis – a human-made disaster. The LA Neighbors Support Fund is our community coming together to help each other through this crisis by providing food and cash assistance for basic necessities to those who need it most. We are #LAStrong, and we stand together. DONATE NOW A weekly food distribution hosted at the Pasadena Jobs Center provides resources to many families of immigrants.

One in three undocumented immigrants in California have been living, working, and supporting their families here for more than a decade, often making their way through the slow process for legal status. One in five children in California live in mixed-status families, meaning they are undocumented themselves or live with someone who is.
