                        SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
                         TO BE HELD ON AUGUST 15, 2005

     This proxy statement is being furnished to you in connection with the
solicitation of proxies by the Board of Trustees (the "Board") of New Covenant
Funds (the "Trust"), on behalf of each of its series named above (each a "Fund"
and collectively, the "Funds"), to be voted at a Special Meeting of Shareholders
to be held on Monday, August 15, 2005, at 200 East Twelfth Street,
Jeffersonville, Indiana 47130, at 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time, for the purposes set
forth below and as described in greater detail in this Proxy Statement.

     You are entitled to vote at the Meeting and at any adjournment(s) if you
owned shares of any Fund at the close of business on June 30, 2005 (the "Record
Date"). The date of the first mailing of the Proxy Cards and this Proxy
Statement to shareholders will be on or about July 15, 2005.

     Only shareholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date
will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting. Shares represented
by proxies, unless previously revoked, will be voted at the Meeting in
accordance with the instructions of the shareholders. If Proxy Cards have been
executed, but no instructions are given, such proxies will be voted in favor of
the proposals. To revoke a proxy, the shareholder giving such proxy must either:
(1) submit to the Trust a subsequently dated Proxy Card, (2) deliver to the
Trust a written notice of revocation, or (3) otherwise give notice of revocation
in open meeting, in all cases prior to the exercise of the authority granted in
the proxy.

     The presence in person or by proxy of the holders of record of one-third of
the total shares outstanding of the Trust on the Record Date shall constitute a
quorum at the Meeting for purposes of the proposals.

     In the event that the necessary quorum to transact business or the vote
required to approve or reject any proposal is not obtained by the date of the
Meeting, a person named as proxy may propose one or more adjournments of the
Meeting for a reasonable period or periods to permit further solicitation of
proxies. In addition, if, in the judgment of the persons named as proxies, it is
advisable to defer action on one or more proposals, the persons named as proxies
may propose one or more


adjournments of the Meeting with respect to such proposal or proposals for a
reasonable period or periods. Any broker non-votes received will be excluded
from calculating the number of votes required to approve any proposal to adjourn
the Meeting.

     The most recent annual report of the Funds, including financial statements,
for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2004, and the most recent semi-annual report
of the Funds for the semi-annual period ended December 31, 2004, have been
mailed previously to shareholders. If you would like to receive additional
copies of these shareholder reports free of charge, please contact the Funds by
calling 1-800-858-6127. Requested shareholder reports will be sent by first
class mail within three business days of the receipt of the request.

                            PROPOSAL 1 -- ALL FUNDS

                              ELECTION OF TRUSTEES

WHAT ARE SHAREHOLDERS BEING ASKED TO APPROVE IN PROPOSAL 1?

     The purpose of this proposal is to elect members of the Board of Trustees.
The Board of Trustees oversees the operations and management of each of the
Funds and meets regularly to review the business and investment activities of
the Funds. The current Board of Trustees has deemed it advisable and in the best
interests of the shareholders of the Funds to expand the size of the Board in
order to include additional individuals on the Board. The Board concluded that
it is beneficial for the Trust to have Board members who bring diverse
experiences and backgrounds to the Funds. The Investment Company Act of 1940
(the "Investment Company Act") requires that a specific percentage of Trustees
of a mutual fund must have been elected by shareholders. In order to add new
Trustees to the Board and comply with the requirements of the Investment Company
Act, the Board is requesting that shareholders of the Funds vote for the full
slate of eight Nominees, which includes all of the current Trustees.

WHO ARE THE NOMINEES TO THE BOARD?

     Information about the Nominees, including their addresses, age and
principal occupations during the past five years, and other current
directorships of publicly traded companies or funds, is set forth in the table
below. Each Nominee has agreed to serve on the Board if elected by shareholders.
A Nominee is deemed to be "independent" to the extent the Trustee is not an
"interested person" of the Trust, as that term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of
the Investment Company Act (an "Independent Trustee"). All Nominees whose names
are designated by an asterisk (*) are currently Trustees of the Trust. For
purposes of this Proxy Statement, "Fund Complex" means the four Funds of the
Trust. In the event that all of the

                                        2


Trustee Nominees are elected, the Independent Trustees would then represent 75%
of the Board.
