All funds and property of the Diocese held for investment are entrusted to the Trustees. The trustees report annually to the Diocesan Convention on the funds committed to their care.

The Trustees hold title to the real property of the Diocese and its missions, as well as funds that are available for loan to congregations and agencies of the church. 

They also sponsor the Western New York Episcopal Diocesan Investment Trust, a family of mutual funds available to congregations and agencies of the church for investment purposes. Four funds are currently provided:

• A money market fund
• A bond fund
• A balance fund
• An equity fund

Quarterly statements and an annual report are mailed to all participants. For more information about the Western New York Episcopal Diocesan Investment Trust, contact Richard Marshall at 716-841-2885.

In addition, the Trustees manage a fund that benefits of the Anglican Diocese of Belize.

The Certificate of Incorporation of the Diocese (1922) and the Canons provide for the diocesan Trustees, which consist of the Bishop and two members of the clergy and four lay persons elected by the Annual Convention. Two trustees are elected each year to serve for a term of three years.
