Change Not Charity: Charitable Giving For Climate Change with Jack Chellman (Ep. 80)
The traditional process for giving money to charity can leave people feeling skeptical, but when it comes to donating to charities for climate change, applying a “fund management” approach can be the solution that makes a difference.
In this episode, Jack Chellman, the head of strategy and communications at the Global Returns Project, joins Kimberly Griego-Kiel to talk about the company’s Global Returns Portfolio. Jack explains how this portfolio works as a diverse, effective, and scalable not-for-profit tool designed to regenerate the planet and protect the environment.
Jack discusses:
- Types of charitable giving
- Ways the Global Returns Project works to support climate change with not-for-profit organizations to curate investments (not for financial return)
- The 3 UN Sustainable Development Goals this organization targets
- Ways individual investors can get involved and the role of taxes when it comes to charitable giving
- The difference between donating stocks and cash
- And more!
