Why is JustFund Offering Find and Fund? Like most American systems, philanthropy - and the technology that powers it - was borne form unjust systems. For all the intended good, philanthropy often perpetuates the same social and economic inequalities it seeks to alleviate. Philanthropy’s power to shape our communities is immense, but systemic roadblocks are preventing money from moving to BIPOC-led organizations in an equitable way. Did you know there’s an estimated $160 billion in assets sitting untouched in Donor Advised Funds (DAFs), not being invested into vulnerable communities?1 JustFund seeks to break the dam between these dollars and the critical work on the frontlines. Let’s JustFund, Together.
