Making Grants from a Fund

All full-access advisors with funds at CAF America have the ability to make grant suggestions via email, mail, or by accessing your online account on the ‘Donor View Portal’. The Donor View Portal is a password protected, real-time platform where Fund information such as grant payment dates and Fund balance details can be viewed.

Once CAF America receives a grant recommendation, we verify if the organization is currently eligible with CAF America.

If the organization is already eligible, the grant suggestion will move through CAF America’s approval process. Eligible grant suggestions are considered by CAF America’s Board of Directors on a weekly basis. If a suggested organization is not yet eligible, the organization must first undergo our 100-step due diligence process before we can proceed with the grant suggestion.

CAF America will provide Fund holders with a monthly report which will contain updated information about the status of each pending grant suggestion.
