Your client may express interest in leveraging their donor-advised fund balance to:
Invest in / make loans to for-profit social ventures.
Make recoverable grants or loans to charities loans.
As their advisor, you can request to partner with Impact Foundation to offer impact investing to your client via your firm's custom giving program.
Impact Foundation is a 501(c)(3) public charity that allows clients to recommend custom investments in their Impact Accounts (a donor-advised fund). Through January 2024, their donors/investors have deployed more than $525 Million for impact.
