Daisy Fund

The Daisy Fund goal is to educate young donors about philanthropy in engaging and age appropriate ways, in order to cultivate a tradition of philanthropy for future generations. Areas of focus will be:
  • Volunteering: Throughout the year, families will be given opportunities to volunteer.
  • Fundraising: Children will be given inspiration for how they can fundraise for causes that are important to them.
  • Relief: Timely ideas for various age groups will be shared by social media to help children respond to emergency and disaster relief needs around the world.
  • Stewardship: Through site visits, discussion groups, and other resources young donors will learn what it takes to make powerful and effective decisions about where to offer their assistance.
  • Legacy: Young fund participants will have opportunities to connect with other young people to explore and develop their own philanthropic legacy.
  • Fun: Activities, events, and media for the Daisy Fund will be fun. Children of any age will be excited and invigorated by their experience with the Daisy Fund.
