To help individuals and organizations create charitable endowment funds.

Just as a small acorn grows into a mighty oak, the Acorn Plan helps grow your contributions into a charitable endowment.  It is a simple arrangement with no administrative costs to you.

Open up an Acorn account with any amount of money you wish.  There is no minimum amount needed to start.  Your contributions to Evergreen are income tax deductible just like any other charitable contribution.

Advise us how you want your money to be invested...either in the Money Market/CD deposits or the Equity investments.

Let Evergreen know how you want the earnings from your Acorn account to be distributed.  We will send those earnings to the charity or charities of your choice annually, or you may let those earnings accumulate to build your endowment.  You can change your charitable beneficiaries at any time.

Feel free to add to your Acorn account at any time and in any amount that you wish by cash, check, Visa or MasterCard.

Remember, all of this is happening without any administrative costs to you!

Start.  Contribute.  Advise.  It is just that simple.
