A directory of pooled charitable funds
Pooled funds that take donor-advised capital and put it to work on non-extractive terms — each one listed with a named steward, a named sponsor, a stated minimum, and the instruments it actually deploys. Pick one, set an amount, press. Your DAF provider receives the grant recommendation with the fund already designated, and you are done in about ninety seconds.
What you can do here
Every fund discloses the same facts in the same places, so a decision that used to take a quarter of introductions takes an afternoon of reading.
You can move on one fund today and add another next month, or spread a single contribution across several and send it as one packet. Nothing here asks you to open an account, move assets, or talk to us first.
01 — BROWSE
A named steward, a named sponsor, a stated minimum, and the instruments each fund actually deploys. Filter by the themes and instruments you care about, then compare the figures straight down the column — they sit in the same place on every listing.
02 — PRESS
Pick an amount and press. DAFpay hands the grant recommendation straight to your DAF provider — Fidelity Charitable, Schwab, Movement Strategy Center, a community foundation — with the fund already designated. No wire instructions, no PDF, no retyping an EIN.
03 — WATCH IT RECYCLE
Several listings deploy capital designed to come back. When it does, it never leaves charitable status — it is redeployed into the next cohort instead of being re-raised. A grant you make once can land more than once.
Open right now
Each one is governed by its own sponsor, with its own diligence, its own terms and its own reporting. DAF Impact lists them and routes the contribution; it does not sit between you and the fund.

Held at Movement Strategy Center
The recoverable portfolio inside the Full Spectrum Impact Fund. LFIF deploys recoverable grants, non-extractive loans and mission-aligned equity to organizations that came through the Liberated Futures grant portfolio and demonstrated they can put flexible capital to work. Capital deployed here is designed to come back and be redeployed — a revolving fund operating inside a philanthropic vehicle.

Held at Movement Strategy Center
A three-year, $15M commitment to 24 organizations across four pillars: community wealth, BIPOC self-determination, gender justice and climate justice. This is the grant-only portfolio — no return expectation, no repayment terms. It is open to additional DAF contributions toward the established portfolio.
Minimum $10,000
Stewarded by Full Spectrum Group
Held at Movement Strategy Center
The multi-donor, community-advised fund that pools and deploys capital across the initiatives in this directory, including LFIF. Unlike a conventional DAF limited to 501(c)(3) grantees, FSIF can make philanthropic investments in any entity that passes due diligence — for-profits, cooperatives, CDFIs and funds alike — so long as the investment serves charitable purposes.
Minimum $25,000
The structure
DAF Impact is deliberately a narrow waist: one piece of DAF infrastructure, with breadth on both sides of it. That is what lets a contributor move on three funds in an afternoon instead of onboarding to three separate processes.
Contribution to deployment to return
“Capital is energy that wants to flow like water. Our role as ecosystem stewards is to increase the capacity of communities to absorb more and different kinds of capital, while advising capital stewards to increase the amount of capital they return to community control.”
Taj James — Founder, Full Spectrum Group
Capital that arrives through a listing is deployed with the instrument the project can carry: a grant where a grant is right, a recoverable grant where return is plausible but an obligation would be wrong, a below-market loan built around real cash flow, or equity structured to keep ownership local.
On the recoverable listings it comes back. When it does it stays charitable and funds the next cohort rather than being re-raised — so one contribution can land more than once. That is the part a single grant cannot do.
If you know where you want capital to land, press the button on that fund and your DAF provider takes it from there. If you would rather spread it, build an allocation across several funds and send the whole thing at once.
Regulatory disclosure
DAF Impact lists pooled charitable funds and routes contributions to them; it is not itself a sponsoring organization, a broker, or an investment adviser, and nothing on this site is an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy a security. Every contribution is a grant recommendation made from your own donor-advised fund or foundation to the listed fund's sponsoring entity, and is irrevocable once that sponsor accepts it. Each listed fund is governed by its own sponsor, whose charitable-purpose intent review, due diligence and final administrative verification determine whether and how capital is deployed. Recoverable instruments carry a genuine risk of non-return; capital that does return remains charitable and is redeployed, never distributed to contributors. Adding a fund to an allocation, or submitting an interest profile, does not create a binding asset-transfer contract or any guarantee of return.
