Opening an Endowment with AMCF

As an organization that has gone through the complex process of setting up an endowment that meets Islamic principles, the American Muslim Community Foundation is well-placed to help your organization establish your own.

Whether you are looking for advice or resources along the way, or if you need more specific hands-on support in setting up, hosting, and administering your organization’s endowment, we are available to help.

AMCF hosts nonprofit endowments, making it easy to start your journey to institutional sustainability. Our team walks you through the process of establishing an endowment with continuous support, communication and consultation, while our experienced asset management team at Andalus Capital and Turner Financial Group (TFG) provides excellence in investing expertise and personalized advice tailored to your endowment’s needs. If you open an endowment with AMCF, you will also be invited to join our National Muslim Endowment Council (NMEC), a space where we provide market updates, expert presentations on investment-related topics and create community among endowment holders to exchange experiences on values-centered endowment-building.
