​The use of donor-advised funds (DAFs) as a giving vehicle is on the rise in Canada. So, too, is the practice of impact investing. However, outside of private and public foundation’s carving out allocations from conventional investment activities, there are few donor-focused impact investment solutions offered by DAF providers.

​TwinRiver Capital, with an extensive group of partners including Impact United Academy, commissioned research to explore opportunities for wider adoption of impact investing through DAF foundations, starting a conversation about whether philanthropic capital can be used to catalyze more positive impact in Canada and beyond. View the summary report here.

 Events like this are made possible by donations from institutions and individuals who support our goal to help grow the social finance and impact investing sector in Canada through education and knowledge-sharing. Make a contribution to the Academy through our donor-advised fund with Makeway and be recognized as a founding partner. Donate here.
