Invest in Planet-Focused Solutions


You can help address this funding gap by investing in planet-focused solutions through The ImpactAssets Donor Advised Fund. Below is a sample of planet-focused investment themes available to ImpactAssets clients.


Wildfire Resilience

Donate to the ImpactAssets Wildfire Resilience Fund

In partnership with Rockefeller Foundation, the first $250,000 in donations made to the fund will be matched dollar for dollar.

More than six million acres have burned across the Western US in 2020, and while climate change plays a role in increasing wildfire risk, the core problem is a lack of funding to thin and maintain forests properly.

The ImpactAssets Wildfire Resilience Fund – an ImpactAssets Charitable Fund – supports forest management practices that create healthier forests and cleaner water for communities by investing in forest restoration projects, including forest thinning, restoring native trees and prescribed burns.

These practices have measurable benefits: reduced wildfire severity, lower carbon emissions, improved air quality, increased water supply and job creation. Your donation will support forest restoration and protect over 30,000 acres.

Environmental Sustainability

Investments in environmental solutions creating a healthier planet and sustainable economy

Reducing carbon emissions is essential to mitigating climate change. Through the ImpactAssets Donor Advised Fund, you can invest across high-growth sectors with proven technology to help speed the transition to a low-carbon and sustainable future: renewable energy, energy efficiency, green chemistry, clean transportation and sustainable agriculture. 

Sustainable Aquaculture

Investments in sustainable aquaculture companies addressing ocean and food security 

According to the World Wildlife Fund, nearly 85% of global wild fish stocks are at significant risk of illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing. Without intervention, more than half of the world’s marine species will risk extinction by 2100 (UNESCO). Through the ImpactAssets Donor Advised Fund, you can address these challenges by investing in small to medium enterprises (SMEs) that are working towards the production of safe, accessible aquatic food sources, such as fish, shellfish and plants, in a way that does not harm the health of the planet.

Sustainable Agriculture

U.S. organic farmland investments protecting farmers, food supply and planet 

Organic farmland is critical to mitigate the impacts of climate change. Organic farms preserve healthy soil and food supply that is at risk due to extreme weather caused by climate change. Healthy soil also sequesters carbon from the atmosphere. Through the ImpactAssets Donor Advised Fund, you can invest in the growth and preservation of organic farmland by providing land access to organic family farmers.
