As a result of this meeting, The Mother Church appointed two committees: 1. The sustainability of Christian Science nursing committee and 2. The financial sustainability of Christian Science nursing committee. Additionally, in a follow-up conversation to this meeting, a collaborative donor group, called the Donor Forum, assembled to work on models for financial sustainability.

Its mission was “to provide a community where donors unite and explore together how to promote the inspired ministry of Christian Science nursing in its ever expansive outreach to humanity.” When the Philanthropy Forum met in January 2016, they agreed to support the launch of a national benevolence fund for Christian Science nursing.

Several different models were proposed and legal and financial advice was sought and considered. After an examination of various models, the Working Group decided that it was best to launch the National Fund within an already established and active nonprofit benevolence organization. The Fund Working Group voted unanimously to ask the Principle Foundation to administer the National Fund, and the Foundation whole-heartedly accepted. In June, all responsibility for launching the National Fund was transferred to The Principle Foundation.
