Major Activities

Activity 2

In FY 2011/2012 370 donors worked with CAFAmerica to make 451 Single Donor Advised Gifts (DAGs) totaling $3,949,927. The DAG is a unique product that enables donors of all types to make one-time gifts of $500 or more to organizations around the world. Though it functions similar to a DAF, the DAG supports donors in the beginning stages of realizing their international philanthropic aspirations, or who intend to give less often at smaller levels. The gift minimum is among the smallest in the country, simultaneously lowering the barrier to entry for domestic donors, and increasing a foreign charity's ability to provide giving options to donors they identify in the US.

Activity 3

CAFAmerica offers an array of Philanthropic Advisory Service ranging from the identification of single grantees to the creation of Comprehensive Corporate Giving programs. Leveraging more than 20 years of experience in the international grant making field, CAFAmerica is uniquely equipped to advise its donors on best practices, and to assist in navigating the dynamic philanthropic regulatory environments that exist in various countries around the world. CAFAmerica regularly works with its corporate partners to develop strategies that create more impactful philanthropy, and devise meaningful opportunities to engage employees around the world. In addition, CAFAmerica often assists other grantmakers by providing Due Diligence on identified organizations; ensuring that the potential grantees meet CAFAmerica's widely respected due diligence requirements. This work provides US funders with the security necessary to make international grants with convidnce.
