Charityvest is a fintech startup that enables individuals to make giving a part of their daily financial lives, allowing donors to contribute cash, stocks, or crypto to donor-advised funds, grow their balance with investments, and send funds to over 1.4 million charities. Charityvest was founded in 2019 by Stephen Kump, Jon Koon, and Ashby Foltz, with the goal of changing the narrative around donor-advised funds and making them more accessible to people of all wealth levels. The company aims to catalyze generosity by providing a simple and transparent way for individuals to donate and support multiple charities. Charityvest partners with Alpaca Broker API to offer low-cost ETF investments and tax deductions upfront, allowing users to grow their charitable dollars without incurring taxes on gains.
