Together, we will continue to change the world

For the past quarter of a century, Vanguard Charitable donors have made the organization what it is today. We are fortunate to work with donors like you for whom giving is a priority, and our primary goal remains to maximize the outcomes of your charitable goals.

 

As we all look towards an uncertain future, you can rest assured Vanguard Charitable will continue to emphasize cost-effective, high-value philanthropy.

 

 “As Vanguard Charitable looks ahead to the next 25 years, our goal will be to continue to make this very special charitable giving product the easiest charitable giving product to use." - Rebecca Moffett, President

 

Your giving has ascended to heights we could not have imagined a quarter of a century ago. Thank you once again for your trust, your generosity, and your commitment to making a difference.

1997

Vanguard Charitable is founded!

 

  • Relying on time-tested Vanguard values, a new kind of donor-advised fund is born.
  • The Vanguard Charitable donor of 1997 is a leader and a trailblazer. They want to give effectively and sustainably.
  • With low fees and a long-term outlook front of mind, these donors are ready to make an impact. 

Over 25 years, we’ve learned a great deal about what drives charitable giving, and we are proud of how our donor-advised fund (DAF) impacts communities around the globe. In the midst of uncertain markets and global crises, our DAF has proven to be a stable and flexible giving vehicle that enables donors to best achieve their maximum granting impact.

 

But sponsoring the highest-value DAF is meaningless without your support and dedication to amplifying the effects of your charitable dollars. We thank you for your trust over the past 25 years, and we look forward to a future of long-term, sustainable giving in the years ahead!

 

See below for some of the accomplishments we’ve achieved together over the past quarter century.
