Blessings Fund

About the Organization

The Blessings Fund is a Donor Advised Fund at the Community Foundation of Anne Arundel County, established in 2013 to provide a flexible and personalized approach to charitable giving for its advisor(s).

The fund allows the advisors to recommend grants to nonprofit organizations of their choice, directing financial support to causes that align with their values and interests. It offers the convenience of making donations over time, with the option to grow the fund’s assets through investments. This structure enables the fund's advisors to support a wide range of philanthropic causes while benefiting from a strategic, tax-efficient approach to their charitable giving.
