The future depends on what we do in the present.

-- Mahatma Gandhi

Planned Giving

While a large percentage of all planned gifts are received through wills, only 30% of the US population has a current, legal last will and testament. Crossroads Fund staff can help connect you with advisors to assist in identifying and developing long-term vehicles (e.g., wills, bequests, charitable remainder trusts, insurance policies, etc.) to perpetuate your progressive, philanthropic goals throughout your lifetime and beyond.

For more information, donors should contact Crossroads Fund’s Executive Director, Jeanne Kracher.

Reserve Fund

Crossroads Fund has begun building a Reserve Fund to guarantee a consistent pool of resources for grassroots groups over the long haul and as our goals increase. So far, $50,000 has been raised toward a goal of $250,000 for this fund.

In time, Crossroads will convert this Reserve into an Endowment. The Endowment will provide a stable, permanent funding base to ensure that the work of Crossroads Fund lives on. Income generated from Endowment funds will be used for administrative and operational costs. This will increase our grantmaking capacity by enabling a higher percentage of the money raised each year to be expended on grants.

You can make a one-time gift or a pledge for over several years to help us build. Contact Crossroads Fund’s Executive Director Jeanne Kracher for more information.
