Most charities know what a donation feels like when it arrives. What they rarely get to feel is what it's like when it doesn't stop. A single gift through Evergive doesn't get received and spent — it gets invested. The returns it generates flow to charitable causes over time, guided by donor preferences and the Trust's grant-making policy. A single act of generosity becomes a long-term source of support.

For charities, that means something rare: income they can plan around, not just depend on.

Grants are made periodically by the trustees of The Forever Trust. Donors nominate the charities they'd like to benefit, and those nominations are taken into account when grant decisions are made. As with all Donor Advised Funds, final grant decisions rest with the trustees, in accordance with charity law and the Trust's governing documents. This ensures that all grants meet the legal requirements for charitable giving and that the fund is managed responsibly for the long term.

The practical difference though for a charity is significant. A donation through Evergive doesn't require a renewal campaign, a thank-you call, or a reactivation email. It's designed to keep giving without either party having to do anything to maintain it. That frees charities to focus on their work — not their next fundraise.

That's the point. Not just more money, but more certainty. The kind that lets a charity hire, plan and build — not just survive.

Grants are made at the discretion of The Forever Trust's trustees, guided by donor preferences and in accordance with charity law. The value of investments can go down as well as up. Returns are not guaranteed.
