Thrivent Charitable Impact Fund™

Empower lasting change
Our investment options are led with the Thrivent Charitable Impact Fund™ (Impact Fund), which is actively managed. The fund’s investment strategy focuses on high-performing enterprises that help heal, support or advance our neighbors and our world.

With the Impact Fund, your investment works every day—through products, services and solutions—helping you intentionally use the gifts God has given you to create a better world. And you can multiply your service to humanity through your grants.

Thrivent portfolio

Sophisticated investments made easy
Thrivent’s experienced investment managers build allocations and look for the right opportunities to help the portfolio stay consistent with its objectives. With the Thrivent portfolio you can harmonize your financial and giving goals.

These actively managed funds are made up of stocks and bonds from different sectors, regions and styles—together in a single fund—helping to reduce risk. The funds, each with a different allocation, target various risk-based objectives.

Index portfolio

Simplify your giving
The Index Portfolio simplifies your giving by helping you set a path and easily maintain your charitable fund while it grows. These offerings are a series of broadly diversified, low-cost funds with an all-index, fixed-allocation approach that may provide a complete portfolio in a single fund.

Choosing the right investment offering

Our investment offerings are designed to help you achieve your charitable goals. With a variety of options to fit your individual investing preferences, time horizon and risk tolerance. Consider these questions to help decide which option is right for you:

  1. What is your grantmaking time-horizon? When do you plan to grant your funds out to the causes and charities you cherish?
  2. What is your risk tolerance? How comfortable are you with stock market fluctuations?
  3. Do you prefer actively managed or passively managed funds? Do you want your funds to seek to outperform the market (active) or mirror the performance of the designated index (passive)?
  4. Do you want to proactively invest in companies that are making a positive impact on society and the environment?

The chart below can help guide you in your decision based on your timing for grantmaking, risk tolerance, how your funds are managed and what your values and charitable goals are. As always, we encourage you to speak with your financial advisor or contact Thrivent Charitable to help you make the right decision for you.

Donors must itemize deductions to receive a charitable income tax deduction. Charitable giving can result in tax, legal and financial consequences. Thrivent Charitable Impact & Investing® does not provide legal, accounting or tax advice. Consult your attorney or tax professional.

While diversification can help reduce market risk, it does not eliminate it. Diversification does not ensure a profit or protect against loss in a declining market. Investing involves risks, including the possible loss of principal.

Performance results will include Thrivent Charitable administrative fees and may differ from the results of the underlying fund.
