Welcome to The American
Foundation
of Utah
Home of The Family Foundation Advantage™
Helping individuals, families, and corporations for over 25 years
creating:
Individual Foundations,
Family Foundations,
Private Foundations, and
Corporate Foundations
Our family foundations are uniquely designed
as component charitable accounts established at The American
Foundation of Utah. Our unique approach
gives “your” foundation the more favorable public charity status
(achieving greater tax and financial benefits than you can get with a
private foundation, or in any other way). We also provide leading edge
assistance with private foundation management.
We can tell you when it makes the most sense to have a Private
Foundation. Also, our public charity Family Foundations and Corporate
Foundations can highly complement a private foundation (if you
already have one), working in tandem to
achieve what we believe is "the best of all worlds" in
a charitable giving program.
We are pioneering and leading a movement that we call the "privatization of philanthropy®”.
Under our “privatization” format, donors retain ongoing "direction" of
charitable grants in perpetuity (defined as the donor's ability to be
fully involved in the recommendations of grants to charities). In essence, the donors have what we
call “charitable ownership.” Also, because each foundation is an
ongoing charitable account where principal is preserved, donors become
“owners in philanthropy, not renters.” A component charitable
foundation at The American Foundation
of Utah is permanent, not temporary.
You too can become a philanthropist! It’s simple with The American Foundation of Utah's ”turnkey family foundation program”.
It is easy, inexpensive, and very donor friendly – regardless of your
level of wealth or the size of your potential foundation.
Best of all, you will find our family foundations equally
attractive whether you fund your foundation account with $5,000; $5
Million; or $5 Billion.
