OFFERINGS

 

Our partners at SEED SPOT invest in diverse + impact-driven social entrepreneurs around the world. Learn about CEO Zach Leverenz here.

We spend a lot of time thinking about resources and impact, especially our own. To this end, we are currently focusing our work in three specific areas:

  1. Serving as a fractional/part-time philanthropy officer for individuals or families (currently 3 spaces left for 2023),

  2. Working with clients to increase the impact of Donor Advised Fund distributions, and

  3. Leading bespoke special projects for individuals, families, and foundations.

These engagements are led by our Founder, Chandler Arnold, with support from our subject area experts who leverage expertise across a range of impact areas and philanthropic disciplines.

FRACTIONAL/PART-TIME PHILANTHROPY OFFICER

Mega philanthropists have entire teams helping them do their work. On the other hand, small donors often enjoy managing all aspects of their giving individually. Mid-size philanthropists, however, often face the challenge of wanting to scale their impact but lack the time or expertise to manage this growth.

“I knew I had the capacity to increase my personal philanthropy but didn’t have the time or the expertise to do it alone. I didn’t need a full-time person but I REALLY needed a deeply experienced part-time leader to bring my vision to life. Untraditional Philanthropy wildly exceeded my expectations and we are expanding our work together in Year Two.”

—Gina A. Phillips, President, Samuel L. Phillips Family Foundation

After completing a large project, Chandler has released capacity for two additional Fractional/Part-Time Philanthropy Officer roles.

DONOR ADVISED FUND OFFERINGS

“I’ve set up a Donor-Advised Fund but I’m not sure what to do next. I'm a bit overwhelmed and not sure where to start.”

Many of our clients are excited about the potential of Donor-Advised funds (DAFs) but aren’t sure how to make their philanthropic goals a reality. We’ve developed three client offerings to help increase impact and meaning via this unique philanthropic vehicle.

  • DAF STRATEGY WORKSHOP SERIES (cohort of 6-8). Led by our founder with guidance from our experts, this 6-session workshop allows you to develop your own 18-month philanthropic plan while connecting with fellow donors at similar stages of their own work.

  • DAF STRATEGY WORKSHOP SERIES (individual). This leverages the 6-session approach described above in a bespoke one-on-one offering tailored to your goals.

  • INDIVIDUAL DAF CONSULTATIONS (hourly). We also offer individual consultings on a range of topics, including those highlighted below.

Our DAF advisory approach generally centers on six elements: 1) Defining your vision/goals 2) Focusing your passion, 3) Identifying grantees, 4) Centering diversity, equity + inclusion, 5) Defining + measuring impact and 6) Developing your 18-month personal philanthropic plan.
