The Dechomai Foundation, Inc., is a national donor-advised fund that was founded in 2003 to
assist charitable organizations and donors in the often-daunting process of receiving,
managing, liquidating and finally granting proceeds from non-cash donations.
The Foundation receives non-cash assets, liquidates them for a modest fee (1-3%) and then
grants the net proceeds to the charity that the donor advises. The Dechomai Foundation
accepts real estate, limited partnerships, closely-held stock, restricted stock, S-Corp stock, life
insurance, notes and all other unusual assets subject to Board approval.
By allowing charities to refer non-cash donations which otherwise may be declined - in
situations where they either don’t have capacity, expertise or time - the Dechomai Foundation
achieves its mission by capturing more charitable gifts.
In 2006, Dechomai began offering charitable gift annuities in 40 states as well as trustee
services for charitable remainder trusts. Both programs are covered in the “What We Do”
section.
The name Dechomai is Greek and loosely translates "to graciously receive." Since nearly 80%
of all non-cash assets are initially declined, we thought this name was fitting.
