Non-Standard and Temporary Funds

Fees for non-standard funds requiring special services are assessed on a case-by-case basis. Temporary funds typically require a fee of between 2-5% of receipts. DCF staff members work with the individual or organization establishing the fund to determine a fee consistent with the service required.

Annual Investment Fees

Fees for management of Foundation assets are passed through to each fund at our cost, which generally ranges between 0.50% and 0.75%.
