Keshet offers a range of services to facilitate philanthropic giving, including advisory, operational, and strategic services.
Keshet’s financial tool enables a tax-effective giving, by allowing for a separation between the date on which the funds are donated to Keshet – the date on which eligibility for tax credit exists – and the decision regarding which charitable organizations to support.
Personal giving fund
- Keshet’s infrastructure offers a convenient and easily-implemented mechanism, for establishing a personal giving fund, with no complex bureaucratic requirements.
- Decisions on which charities to support are made at the pace and manner suited to each donor.
- The donor can choose their own level of engagement with the grantee organizations, or can choose to make anonymous grants.
Corporate fund
- Keshet assists the company by providing a framework and guidance for choosing a giving strategy that matches the company’s values.
- Keshet offers the company operational services for corporate giving, which include due diligence of the grantee organizations, making the grants, and providing periodic reports to the company.
- Keshet can help strategize how to bridge the company grants to other initiatives, such as employee volunteering.
Family foundation
- Keshet accompanies the family in discussing and understanding the family processes when establishing single family or multi-generational family foundation, in order to make decisions which are consistent with the family’s values. The family foundation benefits from full back-office services, including guidance and advice in areas of giving, due-diligence on the chosen organizations, transferring the grants to such organizations, and more. Funds that are managed through Keshet’s investment options have preferential and favorable terms.
A fund for the next generation
- Keshet makes it possible to create accounts for family members alongside the family foundation, enabling independence, learning, and a personal connection to giving.
- Keshet offers personal and professional guidance in selecting charitable organizations, through a learning process which is personally tailored to the donor’s interests and desired level of engagement.
- Keshet provides administrative and logistical grant management including reports from the organizations.
Legacy fund
- Donors benefit from including Keshet in their estate plan, designating various assets as a donation, which will be added to a personal fund in Keshet.
- The contributed assets will become a significant and continuous giving program, in accordance with the values of the funder.
Perpetual fund – for large social organizations (endowment management)
- Charitable organizations which are in the process of building long-term projects can separate the management of the project expenses from the organization’s ongoing operations by opening a perpetual fund at Keshet.
