Why Build A Relationship With TPF?

TPF offers an easy, flexible, effective and permanent way to accomplish your philanthropic dreams. Donors not only receive the simplicity and tax advantage (as per US law) of a public charity combined with the personal recognition but also involvement and flexibility of a private foundation for not only giving to their local causes in the US but also in Turkey. Donors also gain access to the highest level of strategic thinking on ways to meet community challenges to help make their contributions as effective as possible.














And, because we plan to be here, serving our community for a long-time, you can be assured that there will be a permanent source of funds for issues you care about.

Giving through TPF offers an easiest way for you to realize your philanthropic interests. Satisfaction comes from knowing that your contributions have been effective and have created positive change.

We know that you consider your philanthropic gifts to be an investment - in your community, your hometown, or whatever cause you select. Therefore, at TPF, we offer you to tap into the expertise of our staff members who are available to assess the effectiveness of a grant, to research a giving option or to discuss opportunities with you. We care a great deal about the effectiveness of your gifts and that your giving experience rewards you with great satisfaction and joy.

We invite you to get involved.
