Philanthropic Investment Grants

PHIGs

Our impact investing is done through Philanthropic Investment Grants.

How it Works

Recommend an investment, tell us the impact you think it'll have, and donate the investment capital - we'll do the rest. If the investment is successful, we'll donate 99% of any returns to your recommended donor-advised fund, foundation, or 501(c)(3), or use them to make a new impact investment.

Get Started

We do this for one low, flat fee: $500 for grants of $10,000 or more.*

There is no fee for grants under $10,000, but the investment returns will not be re-donated.

Fill out our PHIG form to recommend an investment.

Easy as 1-2-3
