Donor Advised Funds

A Donor Advised Fund (DAF) is a simple, flexible and effective way to give. It offers the benefits of your own charitable foundation, without the hassle or expense.

Individuals, families or organisations can add funds, assets or securities to their DAF account as often as they’d like – then recommend when and where to distribute them, enabling impactful and tax-efficient philanthropy.

Shares

If you have shares to sell, it is most cost effective if you sell your shares through your own stockbroker, and donate the proceeds to Clergy Support Trust.

If you prefer, you can consider using ShareGift, particularly for small shareholdings. You can request that ShareGift donate the value of the shares to Clergy Support Trust, however we will not know that the gift has come from you.

Trusts and Foundations

By partnering with us, you will walk alongside clergy and their families in the most powerful way; by providing the support they need to live well, serve boldly, and lead flourishing communities.

We can work with you to identify bespoke projects for your Trust or Foundation to fund, and we will provide bespoke reporting to monitor your impact.

Livery Companies

In 1655, concerned with the welfare of clergy children and widows, a Festival was held by merchants, Liverymen and Freemen of the City of London to raise funds.

Since then, a great deal has changed, but Clergy Support Trust's mission to serve those who serve remains the same. As does our deep, historic connection with the Livery movement.

We are pleased to receive vital donations from Livery Companies in the City of London towards our work.
