Our Inspiration

“‘Master, you delivered to me five talents; here, I have made five talents more.’ His master said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a little; I will set you over much. Enter into the joy of your master.’” Matthew 25:20-21

Our Work

Ten Talents exists to help generous people take their One Talent and multiply it into Ten Talents through a foundation of transformational giving. We do this in two main ways:

Giving Funds

We help businesses, individuals, and families set up a variety of funds to streamline and increase their generosity. One of these powerful funds is called a Giving Fund, also known as a Donor Advised Fund (DAF). Through a Giving Fund (DAF), they can:

→ Give cash & non-cash assets
→ Save time and simplify giving
→ Unite gifts with others
→ Turn tax dollars into ministry dollars
→ Give through a personalized online portal

Ministry Partner Program

Our Ministry Partner Program equips qualified 501(c)3 ministries to fulfill their missions and remain healthy and effective through the responsible, creative, and strategic management of their resources. Through this program we:

→ Provide resources & training
→ Help ministries accept cash & non-cash gifts
→ Connect ministries with one another
→ Create & manage Ministry Funds
