At a glance

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.

Fund Full Spectrum Impact Fund

Enter an amount and press. DAFpay connects to your own DAF provider and submits the grant recommendation with this fund already designated — you approve it inside your provider's system, under their rules.

Minimum $25,000. Your grant goes to Movement Strategy Center as this fund's fiscal sponsor — never to dafimpact.org. It is irrevocable once accepted.

The thesis

Why this fund exists.

Most charitable assets sit in conventional market portfolios that contradict the values of the people who put them there, or are given away sequentially as one-time grants. FSIF is the alternative vehicle: capital enters once as a charitable contribution, is structured by a fiscal sponsor, and is deployed with whichever instrument the project's stage calls for.

When it comes back, it never leaves charitable status. It is redeployed. That is what makes the pool refill itself rather than draining.

How this fund deploys

The instruments, and what each one is for.

Matching the instrument to the stage is the whole discipline. A cooperative buying its building and a first-time manager raising an anchor commitment need different money, on different terms, with different definitions of return.

01

Impact-driven companies & regenerative infrastructure

Direct underwriting of businesses creating local economic value and reducing corporate extraction: subordinated debt, soft loans, working capital facilities, structured equity.

02

Cooperatives, shared assets & place-based infrastructure

Moving land, housing and commercial infrastructure out of speculative markets and into permanent community control: long-term recoverable grants, PRIs, low-yield financing lines for community land trusts, capital for worker-owned enterprises.

03

Emerging BIPOC fund managers & community finance

Capitalizing movement-rooted general partners, community wealth-building funds and regional CDFIs: anchor LP commitments, seed fund capitalization, blended-finance pooling.

Two ways in, depending on how ready you are.

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.
