Mission & Vision

We shorten the journey from passion to action—channeling generosity into bold, upstream solutions making investing and giving together through collaborative communities and giving funds as engaging and accessible as your favorite sports team, by uniting the why, how, and where in one place.

The Compass

Before you can chart a course, you need a map. This is our mission, vision and values. The calling that guides us.

 

Our Purpose

Big problems require coordinated generosity. In community, we shorten the distance from passion to action—channeling generosity into bold, upstream solutions by uniting the why, how, and where in one place.

Our Niche

We coordinate generosity through collaborative giving funds so people know where to give and can act together with confidence.

Our Promise

Biblically Based. Data Informed. Spirit Led.

What Makes Us Unique

Stock Picking to Funds

From fragmented giving to intentional portfolios driven by strategic, data-informed generosity.

Solving vs. Treating

Upstream, solutions-first. Willing to challenge the status quo and take bold risks.

No-Fee Funds

Every dollar deployed, not diluted. Leaders cover the engine so every gift goes straight to the work.

Band of Brothers and Sisters

Each fund builds a trusted inner circle of peers. The place to understand the problem, go deep, and act with friends.

Understanding the Times

Where are we at this moment? How did we get here? Let’s look back at the past 25 years and what the journey could look like moving forward.

The World Came to Us

As we entered the dawn of a new century, information was no longer scarce. In the early 2000s Google brought the world, its issues and information online.

There was a new resurgence in the Church about finding the thing that we were passionate about. 

Authors, Pastors, Churches and ministries like Crown Financial, Generous Giving and Generosity Path encouraged us to be generous. New models of giving emerged with the growth of Donor Advised Funds. 

Paralyzed by Information and Stock-Picking

Growing access to information and opportunity led to an increasing number of different ministries in the past 10 years. 

Today, there are 1.85 Million different non profit ministries that exist (And that is only measuring those in the US) At the same time, the volume of conversation grew. Donor Advised Funds went from cutting edge to normative. 

But most of it required givers and investors each doing individual diligence in either giving or investing to sort through thousands of ministries whether it was church planting, clean water or anything else! Many times it took a pioneer spirit and commitment to get involved at scale. 

The “New” Problem-Solver

What once required a search through history books now fills today’s headlines—reusable rockets, self-driving cars, AI, and more. Entrepreneurs shape culture, markets, and the way we live.

They’re also reshaping how we solve problems. Self-sustaining businesses have become powerful vehicles for lasting change. It’s woven into our past and central to our future.

That’s why organizations like Impact Foundation and Trustbridge have emerged—expanding the conversation to include investing and giving from Donor Advised Funds as catalytic tools to tackle the world’s greatest challenges.

Reducing Friction. Making Complex Accessible.

The complexity of the world’s problems demands all of us—Entrepreneurs, Investors, Givers, Church and Ministry Leaders. It will take vibrant communities, supported by a trusted backbone, to rise to the challenge.

Looking to the next decade, we feel a deep conviction: the road must become more accessible. How do we reduce friction and open wider pathways for engagement?

We believe shared branding and a unified platform can accelerate trust, shorten the distance from passion to scaled action, and connect trusted partners to fuel every step along the way.

Multiplying Together. Communities and Funds.

In the 1980s, the investment world changed forever. We stopped picking individual stocks, and funds transformed the markets—ushering in a new era of scale, efficiency, and impact.

We believe giving is at a similar inflection point. As Builders, Investors, and Givers, we don’t just solve problems—we invest for Kingdom impact. Under God’s power and for His glory, we steward resources to drive real and lasting change.

We’ve already seen what’s possible. Initiatives like Illuminations have accelerated Bible translation, saving decades of work and multiplying reach.

So what if collaboration became the norm? Imagine a family of funds—accessible to all—led by seasoned investors and givers who open the way for others. A model where businesses, churches, and individuals of every capacity, from the rich young ruler to the widow with her mite, can join in solving the world’s greatest problems—together.
