The Structure
of Stewardship
How Give 100 assigns custody, stewardship, and fiduciary oversight
Stewardship depends on the clarity of its structure.
Give 100 is structured to establish a permanent institution. Its stewardship, fiduciary custody, and capital deployment are assigned as distinct functions within a formal governance framework.
What This Structure Achieves
The separation of stewardship, custody, and deployment creates administrative clarity, strengthens fiduciary discipline, and ensures that capital is governed within a formal trusteeship structure.
