Investing in the Future: Fidelity Charitable, Donor-Advised Funds, and Trillion Bees Earth
When purpose meets smart financial planning, the result can be transformative for the planet. This is why the partnership between Fidelity Charitable and Trillion Bees Earth is a game-changer for those who want to make a lasting impact on pollinator conservation and environmental sustainability. Together, they’re leveraging the power of donor-advised funds to support a mission that affects every corner of the globe: saving the bees.
What Is Fidelity Charitable?
Fidelity Charitable is the largest grantmaking organization in the U.S., offering donor-advised funds (DAFs) to individuals who want to maximize their philanthropic impact. A DAF is like a personal charitable savings account, allowing donors to contribute cash, securities, or other assets, receive an immediate tax deduction, and recommend grants to nonprofit organizations over time.
This innovative giving vehicle makes it easy to support causes you care about while optimizing your tax benefits. It’s a win-win for both donors and the nonprofits they support.
Introducing Trillion Bees Earth

With the ambitious goal of restoring global bee populations, Trillion Bees Earth works on habitat restoration, beekeeper support, and education programs to combat the challenges facing pollinators. From fighting the impacts of pesticides to addressing climate change, the organization is on the frontlines of creating a sustainable future.
