You can create life-changing impact through charity and philanthropy. When funds are collectively raised and granted tactfully with accountability, good things happen. Your graceful use of capital changes lives. Financial kindness and sharing of your fuel enables others to prosper and achieve greatness.



In 2023 Creative Capitalists formed the Creative Giving Fund (“CGF”), a donor-advised fund with the purpose of catalyzing the impact of select 501c3 charities. The Creative Giving Fund empowers other DAF account owners to compound their impact by collectively allocating grants to the same or similar organizations through joint initiatives, collaborative granting and stakeholder reporting.

By articulating a clear initiative and more efficiently aggregating philanthropic capital, the Creative Giving Fund will help increase the number of clients that give, their frequency of giving and the overall net impact this has on the operations of recipient organizations. This is all done in collaboration with Alleyne Connect U (“ACU”) www.alleyneconnect.com, a consulting group and hub for leaders that delivers community empowerment and transformative change. ACU is positioned to increase absorption capacity of its hub participants and client organizations by building up their infrastructure to cultivate long-term, sustained leadership. ACU associated charities, social enterprise clients, partners and network of donors are building together an environment that can navigate a rapidly changing world. Selected recipient organizations deliver on their specific program objectives with compounded growth.

How it works

Individuals, families or foundations give to the Creative Giving Fund (“CGF”) thereby increasing collective funding and impact at the local leadership level in their community through more agile and focused granting. Alternatively donors can co-grant alongside CGF. Together we achieve the goal of supporting select organizations that deliver and lead. Donors receive performance and impact reporting updates on each charity’s 501(c)3 and overall contributions.

Dedication

The work of Creative Capitalists is dedicated to the life of Travis Wesley Hansen (10/23/1980 to 09/26/2021), best friend and brother. Arguably the single smartest and most engaging friend I have ever known, his adventurous, spontaneous spirit brought out the best in everyone, including me. A man of integrity and courage, his fervor for life was unmatched and totally unique. His spirit lives in me, his family and friends. Trav—you believed in me and I believe in you. Your Soul is eternal and lives today—I know this. I love you brother. One day we will pick up right where we left off—having fun and exploring all that nature has to offer. Project Tatara (多々良) lives! Proverbs 27:17
