What does empowered giving look like?

For one Charitable Impact donor, it’s directing $750,000 through their donor-advised fund to help build a modular farm hub in North Saanich. This thoughtful contribution addresses a critical gap in local agriculture—supporting small farms with the infrastructure they need to sustainably grow, thrive, and feed their communities.

By empowering donors with tools to give intentionally, we help make moments like this possible.
