For Financial Institutions

To provide the best donor-advised fund service to your clients, work with NPT.

National Philanthropic Trust (NPT) is a public charity that offers donor-advised funds (DAFs). We provide a branded, full-service DAF solution to financial institutions. A DAF program in partnership with NPT allows you to:

  • Expand your client offering and increase your charitable assets under management
  • Leverage our philanthropic expertise to benefit your clients and advisors
  • Provide your advisors with a planning tool that can extend to multiple generations
  • Focus on growing the DAF program, while we act as the fiduciary and fully support all administration

To establish a Private-Label Partnership, we would jointly enter into a service-level agreement. NPT assumes all of the administrative, legal and technical aspects of managing your Private-Label DAF program, including gift acceptance, grant due diligence and distribution.

NPT’s staff provides prompt and professional support to both advisors and clients. You may determine custody of the charitable assets and recommend how they will be invested, based on NPT’s Investment Policy. NPT can provide your advisors with marketing materials, education and toll-free support to strategically and successfully market the DAF to clients.
