National Christian Foundation Tampa Bay Shows Record Giving During Economic Turmoil

July 18, 2020 by Post

TAMPA, FL, July, 2020—In the midst of economic uncertainty for many, the National Christian Foundation (NCF), one of America’s largest charities, announced that its Tampa Bay office has surpassed $500 million in giving since opening in 2005—a goal they originally projected would not be met until 2022.

“While NCF is known for offering some of the most advanced charitable gift planning solutions and expertise in the country (the “HOW” of giving), our real passion is serving our givers and partners in the “WHY” of giving. Why do you give? What are your passions? What organizations are you considering supporting through NCF and WHY? If we can encourage families and business owners in our local communities to embrace generosity, we can transform our cities and the world. I’ve yet to meet an unhappy generous person!” said NCF Tampa Bay President, Andrew Prilliman.

Thousands of Tampa Bay givers are stepping up during the COVID-19 pandemic, assisting when churches and charities need it the most. Since March alone, more than 700 grants were distributed to a variety of Tampa Bay causes, including:

  • $394,970 in grants to humanitarian aid and disaster relief
  • $241,690 to organizations providing food
  • $17,000 in grants to medical research
  • $366,447 in grants to medical and healthcare needs including almost 18,000 masks that were provided to medical professionals in the Tampa Bay area
  • More than $2.7m raised for smaller churches in need due to COVID-19, as part of the Churches Helping Churches initiative

National Christian Foundation and its givers continue to maximize their impact for the causes they love. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, givers nationwide mobilized more than $196 million in grants from their National Christian Foundation Giving Funds(donor-advised funds). National Christian Foundation’s grants were up $50 million—a 31% increase—compared to the same timeframe last year.
