I can recommend TIAA CREF for non-profit retirements.  Their plan is a 403B tax deferred annuity that vests the monies in the individuals account on the day of deposit.  The employee manages the account, much like a mutual fund.  Our policy is if the employee puts in 3% or more of thier gross the Museum will put in 7%. 
The pay out is an annuity so it really is a retirement fund not a savings account.
 
This group has managed university retirements for many years and one of the largest mutual companies in the country.

Subject: Retirement Plans?

Hello Listers,
Our new director is interested in starting some kind of retirement savings plan for the employees at our museum. We are a private non-profit with seven full-time employees.  Do any of you work at museums that have retirement savings plans, or know of specific plans for non-profits? Any help you can give us would be greatly appreciated!
