Philanthropy Working Overtime

The Giving Fund provides investments that have social and environmental returns, as well as financial returns. Since all our investments have been screened to have a positive impact, you can decide to what extent and in what area you wish to do good. While your funds await grantmaking they are invested to generate the returns that you have chosen and create meaningful impact in the process.
The Giving Fund was created by Calvert Foundation, which allows everyday people, not just institutions, to participate in financial instruments that directly serve communities both in the US and around the world by providing affordable housing, microfinance, small business funding and essential community facilities.
What could make more sense than entrusting your donor dollars to a nonprofit that is committed to alleviating poverty through investment? We partner with organizations in all 50 states and in over 100 countries working to build communities. Ultimately many of these organizations will receive support from your donated funds.
