Friends Funds

The CAF America Friends Fund is an exciting, cost-effective alternative for foreign charitable organizations seeking to improve their support from US donors. Not only does the Fund save organizations money, it also eliminates the time and trouble of establishing and administering a public charity in the United States. With a Friends Fund at CAF America, foreign organizations can launch and maintain US fundraising appeal and solicit tax-deductible donations of any size from US donors.
