Friends Funds

A cost-effective way to receive support from U.S. donors

With a Friends Fund at CAF America, your foreign charitable organization can launch and maintain U.S. fundraising appeals and solicit tax-deductible donations of any size from U.S. donors.

Not only does a Fund save your organization money, it also eliminates the time-consuming challenge of establishing and administering a public charity in the United States. Any foreign charitable organization that is eligible with CAF America is invited to open a Friends Fund.
