Calvert Giving Fund Sets High Bar for Donor Advised Funds: 100 Percent Socially Responsible Strategy Outperforms S&P 500 in Down Market

Tim Freundlich, senior vice president at Calvert Foundation, said: “Donor advised funds are growing in popularity at an astounding rate, as they provide donors with the philanthropic tools available to those with private family foundations, but without the high costs that accompany such an endeavor. As more philanthropists discover DAFs, Calvert Foundation’s Giving Fund has experienced a surge in interest. And our Giving Fund donors have given us nothing but positive feedback over the past year.”
