Named Fund

A Named Fund can be established in your name, your family name or you may wish to remain anonymous.

Your Named Fund can focus on the causes across Greater Manchester that interest you and that you are interested in supporting to make a meaningful difference.

You can involve your family in making decisions about where funding is allocated from your Named Fund.

Forever Manchester will work closely with you to achieve this and you can be extensively involved in the process or you can allow Forever Manchester to handle the Fund on your behalf. In either case a full report is provided to you at the end of each year detailing all grants made and financial information if required.

This option enables an individual or family to leave a legacy in their region, in their name supporting causes close to their heart.

Donor Advised Fund

A Donor Advised Fund allows an individual or family to have a Fund with Forever Manchester from which specific donations, locally and nationally, can be made upon your advice. Forever Manchester will manage the account and provide due diligence on all donations made.
A report will be provided at the end of each year detailing all donations made.

One off donations

You are able to make one off donations to Forever Manchester which enables us to carry on vital support in Greater Manchester communities.

And don’t forget to Gift Aid it: whether you are donating online or offline every £10 you donate is worth £12.50 to us with Gift Aid.

Please take independent financial advice on donations to ensure your donation is tax effective.

Legacies

When preparing your Will you may choose to leave a bequest to Forever Manchester. We will, in turn, ensure your legacy supports a wide range of community projects across Greater Manchester or can support a particular cause or geographical area.
