Giving Green Fund
What is the Giving Green Fund?
The Giving Green Fund is a climate grantmaking fund designed to maximize the impact of your charitable donations.
​
When you donate to the Fund, your gifts are then disbursed to a portfolio of high-impact climate projects identified by the Giving Green team.
​
We believe giving to the Fund is our highest-impact climate donation option.
