Charitable Fund Types & Fees

Donors choose to work with the Saint Paul & Minnesota Foundation because they value the highest level of personal service as they identify and fulfill their charitable goals.

Fund fees include administrative and investment fees. The following are the fee ranges:

Administrative Fees: .35% to 1.5% depending on the type of fund and fund balance
Investment Fees: .01% to .088% depending on your client’s fund investment recommendation
